Know well the spectacular Vietnam Country, the experts of Vietnam By Bike plan the BEST VIETNAM BIKE ROUTES for adventurer's holiday and list these top best highlights with our practical activities with adventurer's cyclists since 2007 until now.
The landscape in Vietnam is incredibly diverse and there are many beautiful places: Rice is grown in the north and south, which makes it possible to visit the famous rice terraces, while in Central Vietnam barren mountains shape the landscape. Along the coast there are sandy beaches and turquoise blue water, which are not only suitable for relaxing, but also as a great backdrop for a Vietnam bike trip. It is flat in the south, but mountain bikers can also let off steam in Vietnam: for example on Phan-xi-păng, Vietnam's highest mountain, in the north.
Biking in Mui Ne
Travel Highlights
- In the city of Mui Ne you can not only windsurf, but above all look at the large sand dunes that are north of the city. The dunes are impressive, but at sunset the view of the sandy expanse is stunning.
- Crawl through the underground Cu Chi tunnels northwest of Ho Chi Minh City, which the guerrillas used as a hiding place during the Vietnam War.
- Marvel at colonial architecture in Hanoi, visit some of the many temples in the 1000-year-old city (such as the Perfume Pagoda and the Temple of Literature) or relax at Hoan Kiem Lake, the favorite place of many locals.
Biking In Hue - Central Vietnam
Travel Tips
- Since cycling in Vietnam is very popular, it is easy to buy bikes in more rural parts of the country. A mix between a road bike and a mountain bike is best.
- Although there is a lot of traffic in Vietnam (especially in the cities), people are used to single-track vehicles. As traffic is often slow, progress is not too complicated as expected.
- The best cycling time in North Vietnam is between October and February, when it doesn't rain as much and the weather is cooler. For example, in May it often has 35 ° C, making cycling exhausting. It is generally hotter in the south.
