Gieng Troi - well worth a visit
The Gieng Troi (Well of Heaven) nestled deep within the forest of Hoa Ninh Commune, Hoa Vang District, Da Nang is well worth visiting if you love adventure, and have willpower to spare.
Amazing beauty of the Gieng Troi |
The Gieng Troi is considered as a scenic masterpiece with crystal clear water all year round, an amazing pristine waterfall and incredible natural rock formations.
The Gieng Troi is very hard to reach because you will ride a long distance from the centre city to the Sun World Ba Na Hills, and from there you will continue walking or riding your motorbikes to reach your destination by going through a small slope nearby the parking area.
Then, you continue walking on a 10km-long risky trail of a steep rocky mountain, including 3km of extremely difficult road on steep slopes and on moss-covered large rocks. You must pay close attention to the road to avoid slipping or straying in the forest.
After a taxing trek, the sight of a fairyland-like spot at once captures your attention as a reward for your efforts to wade through the forest.
Especially, you will be fascinated by the sounds of a gurgling waterfall and frogs croaking, and seeing many luminous fireflies at night.
The Gieng Troi is a great place for anyone who wants to seek peace and privacy, and awaken their senses whilst immersing themselves in natural settings.
