Description

Join this unforgettable one-day hiking adventure to Sau Chua Mountain, one of Sa Pa’s hidden gems offering breathtaking views and a rewarding challenge. The tour begins at Sa Pa Stone Church, where you’ll ride a motorbike through peaceful mountain roads toward Sau Chua Village. Your first stop is Buffalo Horn Peak, a scenic viewpoint overlooking Sa Pa Valley and its stunning terraced fields — a perfect place to take photos and admire the landscape. From here, continue by motorbike to the foot of Sau Chua Mountain, where your hiking journey begins. Follow a small mountain trail passing Sau Chua Pagoda, a tranquil temple surrounded by forest and mist. As you climb higher, the scenery becomes more spectacular — green valleys, golden rice terraces, and tiny villages spread across the hillsides. At the summit, enjoy a 360-degree panorama of the region: see Fansipan Peak, Ta Phin Valley, Muong Hoa Valley, and even Sa Pa town from afar. On cold winter days, clouds often drift below your feet, making you feel like you’re walking in the sky. The descent follows another narrow path leading you gently downhill through nature. This tour is perfect for adventurous travelers who love challenging hikes, local culture, and untouched mountain beauty.
