O Quy Ho Mountain Pass

O Quy Ho mountain pass is the longest pass (nearly 50 kilometers long) and is known as one of the four great peaks of the mountain pass of Vietnam with the exciting stages of zig-zac road. Lying on the Highway 4D crossing Hoang Lien Son mountain range, its second name is Hoang Lien Son mountain pass which connects the two provinces, Lao Cai and Lai Chau.

Viewed from above down, the mountain pass is winding, soft as the silk among the sea of white clouds creating a majestic painting that attracts lots of tourists coming here to admire. Conquering the height and standing among the spectacular landscape in perfect harmony with the deep blue sky, people seem smallest than ever. The pass with dangerous steep roads, deep abyss, and the extremely high mountain is a hard challenge for long-distance drivers as it not only requires the driving skills but also high concentration. However, if overcome their fears and complete the task, tourists will be rewarded with an amazing view of floating clouds as in the fairyland with a memorable feeling that they should get at least once in their life.

Planning a trip to O Quy Ho pass would be great on a clear sunny day as you can get a panorama view of the spectacular mountain, enjoy the magic beauty of untouched nature and feel the tranquil atmosphere of the remote area. Conveniently connecting from Sapa town, a tourist visiting O Quy Ho Pass can also explore other famous sites including the lovely Silver Waterfall which is only 12km far from the site, and Tram Ton – the starting point of the trekking trip to Fansipan peak considered as the Roof of Indochina at the altitude of 3,414m above sea level. This destination also attracts photographers and biking adventure lovers especially a stop by O Quy Ho pass where they can explore a great number of other surrounding scenic spots. If you are looking for a tour to explore this pass but having a limited budget of time, as mentioned before, taking a tour to Sapa.
