Today’s ride covers just over 70 km as we journey deeper into the Bolaven Plateau toward Tad Lo. The day begins with a gentle 15 km climb, but the effort is softened by the lush countryside and sweeping views of the surrounding mountains.
After reaching the crest, you are rewarded with a thrilling 900 m descent, a highlight of the day. The route is mostly on smooth tarmac, but about 19 km will be along rustic red dirt roads, adding variety and adventure to the ride. The final stretch undulates slightly before leading us to the welcoming Tad Lo Lodge, perfectly positioned with front-row views of the waterfalls. To round off a rewarding day, you can cool off with a refreshing swim at the falls and relax in this tranquil natural setting.
