Tucked away in northern Vietnam’s Thanh Hoa Province, Pu Luong Nature Reserve offers a rare combination of natural beauty, cultural depth, and tranquility. While tourists rush to Sapa or Ninh Binh, Pu Luong remains refreshingly quiet—perfect for travelers seeking authentic experiences.
And the best way to explore it? By bicycle.
With Golden Cycling Tours, you’ll go beyond the beaten path—riding through jungle trails, across rice terraces, and into the heart of local communities.
Cycle through iconic rice paddies and terraces that change color with the seasons—lush green in spring and summer, golden in autumn.
Pass through traditional Thai and Muong communities. Say hello to farmers, try local snacks, or stop for tea in a stilt house.
Cycle to Hieu Waterfall, one of Pu Luong’s hidden gems, and take a refreshing dip mid-ride.
Ride through bamboo groves, wooden bridges, and quiet jungle paths where only bikes and buffalos go.
Hear birds instead of engines. Smell fresh herbs, not exhaust. Cycling in Pu Luong is truly immersive.
