Hiking in Vietnam: Cát Tiên Nature Reserve
We stayed in the jungles of Cát Tiên for 3 days and two nights in May 2017. We traveled to a special ethnic village by boat, learned some history, went biking, and hiking.
Cát Tiên National Park is a vast lowland tropical forest and biosphere reserve in southern Vietnam. It's all natural and a great break from the hustle of Ho Chi Minh City.

Singing gibbons of Cat Tien (Vietnam)
Cat Tien is a one of the most beautiful national parks of Vietnam. Groups of gibbons wander around and every morning they mark their territory by making a lot of noise (Singing).
We stayed 3 nights in the Forest Floor lodge, one of the only places to stay inside the park, with a beautiful view over the river.
Near the park entrance there are two rescue centers. One for the gibbons for the rehibilitation of gibbons. The other one is for Asian black bears which have been rescued from the cruel and illegal trade in bile: a traditional medicine.

Cát Tiên National Park
Cát Tiên National Park (Vietnamese: Vườn quốc gia Cát Tiên) is a national park located in the south of Vietnam, approximately 150 km north of Ho Chi Minh City. It has an area of about 720 km2 and protects one of the largest areas of lowland tropical forests left in Vietnam.
Cát Tiên national park was protected initially in 1978 as two sectors, Nam Cat Tien and Tay Cat Tien. Another sector, Cat Loc, was gazetted as a rhinoceros reserve in 1992 upon the discovery of a population of the Vietnamese Javan rhinoceros, an occasion that brought the park into the world's eye. The three areas were combined to form one park in 1998. Nam Cat Tien is contiguous with Vĩnh Cửu nature reserve thus providing an enlarged area for species to breed.
The park suffered historically during the Vietnam War when it was extensively sprayed with defoliant herbicides. However, substantial further damage was done by logging up until the 1990s. To this day these areas have extensive bamboo and grassland cover and trees have not yet grown back.
Cat Tien comprises an important reserve in Vietnam, both for the habitat it protects and the number of species it contains. Although the population of the Javan rhinoceros went into extinction, it is still home to 40 IUCN Red List species, and protects around 30% of Vietnam's species. The park is, however, threatened by encroachment from local communities, illegal logging and poaching. In addition, the park is too small for the larger species found inside it. This has led to either their local extinction or conflict with local people as these animals move beyond the confines of the park. This problem is particularly intense for the park's elephant population, which is prone to wandering and is considered too small to be self sustainable.
Since the early 1990s, partly as a result of the discovery of rhinos in the park, international donors and the Vietnamese government began to invest more money in protecting the park and managing the resources of local State Forest Enterprises, nearby and adjoining forests (including Vinh Cuu Nature Reserve), in co-ordination with the park as a whole. There have been moves to combine a management plan that allows for both traditional park management and some limited resource utilisation by local people, which include the Stieng, Chau Ma (now concentrated in Ta Lai) and Cho'ro minorities.
In 2008 the Forestry Protection Department collaborating with the Endangered Asian Species Trust (UK), Monkey World Ape Rescue(UK) and Pingtung Wildlife Rescue Centre (Taiwan) founded the Dao Tien Endangered Primate Species Centre. The centre focusses on the rescue, rehabilitation and release of the four endangered primates found in Cat Tien (golden-cheeked gibbon, black-shanked douc, pygmy loris and silvered langur), developing Government guidelines for release of primates. The centre conducts informative daily educational tours explaining the centre's work, with a chance to see young rehabilitated gibbons in the trees.
Cat Tien Getaway 2 days tour
By Tigit Motorbikes and Nation7 Tours.
If you’re looking to escape from the chaos of the city for a change of scenery and to get some fresh air, Cat Tien is the place to go.
Cat Tien National Park is a tropical forest located to the northeast of Ho Chi Minh City. To get there by the direct route means sharing the road with trucks, buses, cars and countless numbers of bikes. That’s why we go the long way round, take our time, and spend most of the ride on quiet country roads surrounded by a variety of plantations, the rubber tree being the most common.
Vietnam Adventures in Cat Tien National Park
Videos I compiled in Vietnam from 20-21 November 2018. All are inside Cat Tien National Park. My guide was Roy who is very knowledgeable about the ecology inside the park. I became personally acquainted with the leeches of the park's swampy areas and my boots still smell. It was worth it.
How NOT to Get to Ba Be Lake, Vietnam - MMTV #20 (Ba Be National Park, Vietnam - Part 1 of 2)
In episode 20 of the Monday Morning Travel Vlog, It Ain't Easy, we visit Ba Be National Park (aka Ba Be Lake) and show you that travel is not always easy.
The way we got to Ba Be Lake is NOT the way I would recommend getting to Ba Be National Park. But it should still give you a good idea what the journey looks like, and we had some entertaining moments along the way.
