Paragliding
Dec 25, 2024 · 2 min read
Mu Cang Chai is a district of Yen Bai province, about 300km from Hanoi. The time when the rice fields are ripe is from early September to mid-October.
Remember to pay close attention to the time to avoid disappointment when traveling during the rice harvest season. In Hanoi, there is also this service with a cheaper price and an easier route. But when I think of the immense golden rice fields that I saw in the pictures, along with the name "Stairway to Heaven" of Vietnam, my heart is filled with excitement. So I immediately decided that if I had to fly, I would only fly in Mu Cang Chai. The journey is quite difficult, but I believe the experience you get is completely worth it.
The paragliding festival is held annually in Mu Cang Chai. Mu Cang Chai has long been famous as the land of dreams, possessing both majestic and poetic nature, gentle and friendly people along with precious traditional cultural features.
However, to suit the modern tourism trend as well as effectively exploit the beauty that nature has bestowed on this land, in recent years, skydiving has become the most popular form of tourism. Skydiving has become the most attractive experience that will captivate you on your Mu Cang Chai Review journey. The cost for each skydiving is about 1,500,000 VND/person. Each flight will last about 10-15 minutes and you need to book in advance because this activity attracts a lot of travel enthusiasts.
To get from your accommodation to the flying point, you can search on Google Maps for “Khau Pha Paragliding Point, Khau Pha Pass, Mu Cang Chai, Yen Bai, Vietnam”. Go along the national highway for about 15-20 km to reach the paragliding point. Khau Phan Pass is known as one of the four great mountain passes in Vietnam, the “Legendary Heaven’s Gate of Yen Bai”. On the way, sometimes you will be stunned by the white clouds drifting slowly, the winding passes embracing the golden terraced fields under the sunlight.
You can choose to go early in the morning to watch the sunrise or early in the afternoon to watch the sunset when you return. But don't be too late because the further you go in the wind direction, the harder it is to fly and the photos won't be as nice. In my opinion, this pass is flat and quite easy to go. You just need to drive slowly, pay attention to vehicles and curves and you can go by yourself easily.
Besides, you can also choose the paragliding spot in Mu Cang Chai. The most ideal place for you is Khau Pha Pass and La Pan Tan commune, with a super beautiful view and vast space for unforgettable memories. The experience of paragliding on the vast terraced fields, flying over the hills and mountains will definitely be an unforgettable memory.
