Pu Long Nature Reserve is an area of outstanding beauty and cultural interest in North Vietnam located along two parallel mountain ridges divided by a central valley. The region is 200 kn from Hanoi, and is blessed with rich forest, limestone panoramas and magnificent rice terraces and is also home to the ethnic minority group, the White Thai.  This is a remote area where you can truly venture off the beaten track and experience nature, untouched landscape and traditional lifestyles.

Set within the reserve in a lush green setting between two beautiful waterfalls, is Les Bains de Hieu Eco-lodge. The lodge is owned by Mr. Sy and his wife Thuan, who have redesigned traditional wooden bungalows so as to combine comfort with authenticity.  With just 3 lodges, the owners can ensure that you have a personal and peaceful stay. You will be invited to enjoy meals in the communal stilt house, or ‘nha san’, built in the style of a typical White Thai family house. Here you can relax and enjoy typical local dishes with fine wines. A full range of activities is available including swimming in the natural pools of the nearby waterfalls, hiking to visit local villages, cycling and fishing. Two horses are also available to help you explore the local are and discover the daily life of the White Thai who live in the nature reserve.
