Dong Ha - Quang Tri Citadel - Hue

After a healthy breakfast, just a 15-minute vehicle transfer takes us off the town, and we commence adventure biking with a full day of biking. The flat land paths are complicated through rice paddies, canals, lotus fields, and rivers. The winding paths with fabulous views along farmlands and sometimes along the bendy rivers will lead you to Quang Tri Citadel.


Quang Tri Citadel was built in 1809 by King Gia Long's order. It was a military fortress and administrative, political, and economic center, but it witnessed two wars: French and American—the battle in 1968 with 81 days almost destroyed. Visit the war museum, and explore the ruined citadel on foot with your guide before we ride to the coastline with many stops at pagodas, temples and little markets along the ways.


After lunch, we follow the tracks to fishing villages and pedal along sandy beaches, the peninsula, and Pha Tam Giang Lagoon on coastal trails. Enjoy the beautiful landscape on the back road along the Lagoon to the outskirts of Hue and have a short vehicle transfer to Hue City.
