Going to stream in summer days

Khanh Hoa has not only the sea but also many beautiful streams, such as: Ba Li, Da Giang, Suoi Tien, Ma Gia, Bach Dang, Ba Ho...

About 17km southwest of Nha Trang, Suoi Tien is a famous beauty spot in the past. Starting from Hon Ba mountain area, Suoi Tien, when flowing to the plain of Dien Khanh district, is blocked by a series of natural rocks, forming a majestic and beautiful stone dam. From here, the stream splits into two branches, one to the north, watering the fields; a branch to the east, meets the Cai river and empties into the sea. The road to Suoi Tien is now very easy to go, motorbikes and cars can go to the parking place, then walk about a hundred meters to the stream area. There is an entertainment area and rest and dining for tourists.

Originating from Chien mountain, Ba Li stream is one of the systems of Tranh stream, Thuong stream (Cha Pau mountain), Rich stream, Coc stream (Nhon mountain) ... pouring water into Cam Ranh reservoir. Distance from city center. About 30km from Nha Trang to the south, Ba Li stream is convenient for traveling and camping. The road to the stream passes through villages, fields, beautiful and peaceful countryside. Near the stream area, you will see Ba ​​Li lake, the air starts to cool down. From the spillway, the vast blue water surface, sparkling as far as the eye can see. The road runs along the lake going up to the stream. Across the lake is a green forest. The higher you go, the cooler the air. At the motorbike parking place, guests begin to walk down the spillway, from here there are many trails branching up to the stream. Follow these trails into the woods, for less than a kilometer to camp.

Ba Ho stream
Ba Ho stream

Starting from the top of Hon Son, at an altitude of 660m, the Ba Ho stream weaves its way between the rocky slopes, falls into the fields of Phu Huu village, Ninh Ich commune, Ninh Hoa town, and then flows into Nha Phu bay. On the way from the great thousand to the sea, the hand of the Creator unintentionally but intentionally creates beautiful landscapes for adventurous and adventurous people. There are many cascades formed on the path of the stream, but there are 3 high and beautiful waterfalls, at the foot of each waterfall, rocks are spread around forming 3 lake beds on the back of the mountain. Stop at the small lake area located at the foot of a waterfall, you do not need to stretch your umbrella because a lot of shade is created by the canopy of ancient forest trees. Guests can cook, play, bathe here…

You can also continue exploring, conquering 3 lakes. The road to Lake 1 is relatively easy, although there are also many bumpy sections because there are only rocks and stones, sometimes even having to weave through the interlaced forest ropes, but the higher you go, the cooler it is so you don't feel tired. Beautiful landscape with old trees, big vines intertwined; In the curtain of green leaves, yellow and red forest flowers dotted, the water flows down when it is gentle and gentle, when it is noisy, white foam is splashed. In lake 2 appeared a wonderful scene of only rocks and water. Water rumbling in the ears, the sound of wild birds singing...

The road to Lake 3 is quite steep, you have to climb up very precarious rocks, especially the part where you have to cling to the iron handles on the steep cliffs to climb higher. You just follow the red painted arrow to climb, there are only rocks in front of you and there are rocks below. At the end of the "handrail" section, through a few "monkey bridges" with vines, a picturesque scene appeared in sight. It's hard to describe how I feel when I get to this place. It is the feeling of letting go of fear, the pleasure of conquering the height, the gentle water surface at the foot of the waterfall... You will see how much fatigue disappears...
