Highlights
You will climb Mount Fansipan (or Phan Xi Păng in Vietnamese) which is the highest mountain in Indochina, in one day. This climb will take you to the summit via the Tram Ton Pass, with Khai or one of his team members, who are all local guides from the H'mong community. As this is a private trip, the timings and itinerary are flexible so you can opt for an earlier summit or a more meandering trek back. Khai and his team of guides are really experienced and very patient. They will provide you with support and make sure to pace you appropriately for your skill level. They always make sure to pack a yummy lunch and whenever possible even cook a meal at a campsite so that you can enjoy a hot pho right on the trail to the summit! Additional Info on Mt Fansipan ClimbYou should be an intermediate level climber for Mt Fansipan. The path here is not well maintained, and there are boulders and ladders so it's very much an adventure!The climb starts at 1,800m and goes up to 3,147m. It takes 6-7 hours each way to climb.If you don't want to hike the entire way, you can choose to hike up Mt Fansipan and take a cable car down (choose cable car ticket for your add-on)

About Your Host

Sapa Khai Hmong Treks
Khai Hmong is a Black Hmong tribesman who lives in the place of his birth, the village of Lao Chai in the hills near Sapa. He knows every track, village, and view in the Sapa region.
Khai's personal purpose is driven by a deep passion for the Sapa region, Lao Chai village and the culture of the Black Hmong ethnic minority. His vision is to sustain the village culture and bring its magic to international visitors. Through this, his aim is to provide opportunities to the local village people and provide the means to build a local school to improve the education and prosperity of future generations. Khai is formally trained in tourism and the English language. This allows him to appreciate the needs of adventurous world travellers and clearly communicate the Hmong culture along with all aspects of the Sapa region and landscape.

Hi there, if we hike up to the Fansipan Peak and cable car is not available during that time, is there other WAY to descend down from the peak other than walking down? Thanks!

Hi I'm keen in the 2D1N fansipan trek. Is it possible to trek up but take a cable car down?
Also is it possible to include terrace rice fields, waterfall and tribe home visits in the itinerary? (Ok even on another day)
