4 Day Ha Giang Tour by Motorbike (EasyRider) – The Big Loop

Your Ha Giang motorbike tour kicks off with a scenic ride straight into the highlands. As your motorbike weaves through the early curves of the Dong Van Karst Plateau, you’ll quickly feel the thrill of being deep in Vietnam’s frontier region.

First up is the dramatic Quan Ba Pass, leading to panoramic viewpoints and the famous Twin Mountains—a geological oddity wrapped in local legend. As you ride further, the roads wind through isolated valleys and small ethnic villages that dot the landscape.

After lunch in a local restaurant, your motorbike climbs higher into the mountains. The road passes through Tham Ma and Chin Khoanh, two classic mountain passes known for their switchbacks and cliffside views. In Sung La Valley, the landscape opens up to terraced fields and timeless Hmong villages.

A cultural highlight of the day is a stop at the Hmong King's Palace in Xa Phin. This fortress-style home once belonged to a powerful local leader and offers a unique look into Hmong heritage.

By late afternoon, you’ll reach Dong Van, a quiet mountain town where you’ll rest up for the next leg of your ride. Wander through the Old Quarter or enjoy a peaceful dinner overlooking the valley.

If today is Sunday, you’ll have a chance to visit the lively Dong Van Market, one of the best ways to experience ethnic diversity in action. Different minority groups travel for hours to trade goods, livestock, and textiles in this colorful gathering.

After breakfast, continue your Ha Giang motorbike tour north toward Lung Cu, the symbolic “roof of Vietnam.” A climb up the Lung Cu Flag Tower gives you stunning views across both Vietnam and China—a true “top of the country” moment.

Then comes a real highlight: the legendary Ma Pi Leng Pass. Riding this stretch by motorbike is an experience like no other. The road snakes along sheer cliffs, with the Nho Que River winding far below. You’ll have time to stop for photos or take a short hike on the Sky Path, which follows the ridgeline with jaw-dropping views.

By late afternoon, you’ll descend into Meo Vac, a rugged town surrounded by steep limestone mountains. This is your base for the night.

Start the day early with another chance to catch a Sunday market, this time in Meo Vac, known for its size and variety of ethnic groups.

Today’s route takes you on some of the loop’s quieter, more untouched stretches—ideal for a motorbike tour. You’ll pass through remote highland villages, climb misty mountain passes, and eventually descend into the greener, rice-field-filled valley of Du Gia.

This area has a different feel—lush, peaceful, and far removed from the tourist trail. After arriving, check in with a local host and head out for a short hike through the countryside to reach a hidden waterfall, perfect for a refreshing swim if the weather is right.

Spend the evening in Du Gia, where life slows down and the scenery speaks for itself.

Your final ride begins with a peaceful morning in the valley, then winds through the hills to Lung Tam, a small Hmong village known for its traditional textile production. Here, you’ll see how local women handcraft intricate items using hemp and natural dyes. It’s a great place to pick up a meaningful, handmade souvenir.

Continue toward Quan Ba, where the unique Fairy Mountains (Núi Đôi) rise like a pair of soft domes from the valley floor. From here, descend through Sky Gate and down the serpentine Bac Sum Pass—one last exhilarating ride before you return to Ha Giang.

After arriving back in the city in the early afternoon, you’ll have time to freshen up and grab a bite to eat before boarding the Comfort Limousine Bus back to Hanoi.
