Hoi An Motorbike Tour To Hai Van Pass
Start our motorbike tour by leaving Hoi An, on our way out of town, we visit a Cham temple and a former US war base. We then follow small country laneways around Danang before we head up the steep slopes of the Son Tra peninsula, otherwise known as Monkey Mountain. We ride the narrow road that snakes around the mountain, offering grand views of the sea, My Khe Beach, Danang, the Hai Van Pass and the Truong Son range. We enjoy a picnic lunch with scenic views at the highest point, 696m. Looping around the other side of the mountain, we visit a pagoda with the country’s
biggest Buddha statue, and see colourful fishing boats being repaired along the coast. Before our return, we enter the sacred Marble Mountains, where we can explore the caves or take an optional abseil into the temple at Hell’s Cave.
(Approx. 150km)
Optional Abseiling at Marble Mountain:
We walk up Marble Mountain into the rappelling area, which takes about 10 to 15 minutes.
The first rappel is a short walk from the practice area and enjoys a fantastic view of the ocean. This 22 meter line has great exposure, fantastic scenery and makes you feel like you are much higher than you actually are.
Then we do our final rappel; a monster 50 meter drop into a gaping hole so deep and dark that you can’t see the bottom. This fantastic cave rappel drops right out of the jungle down into a temple chamber. Get ready for a full on Tomb Raider experience!
