Ngu Chi Son Peak is 2,858m above sea level, located in Ta Giang Phinh
Commune, Sa Pa Town, Lao Cai Province. On the journey to explore this mountain,
visitors will have the opportunity to admire the majestic 'heavenly gates' and
beautiful natural scenery.
To reach the starting point for the mountain climbing journey, visitors need to
travel about 25km from the center of Sapa town. The distance to the top of Ngu
Chi Son is about 11km, with a total height of up to 2,800m. However, this
journey is not too difficult, suitable for many people including beginners.
With a terrain structure mainly made of rocks, the path to the top of Ngu Chi
Son passes through many ravines, creating mysterious "heavenly gates", bringing
magical beauty.
Accordingly, the “heavenly gate” located between hut 1 and hut 2 is a favorite
destination for many tourists. This is one of the highlights of the trekking
journey, where visitors can take beautiful photos and save memories of the
conquest of Ngu Chi Son.
An indispensable feature of the Ngu Chi Son trekking journey is the wooden
ladders that lead visitors to the top of the mountain. These ladders can be
slippery during the rainy season, so visitors need to be especially careful when
moving through them. Although built by the local people, these ladders are still
very sturdy.
When approaching the top of Ngu Chi Son, visitors will have to cross a steep
rocky road, where the "gate to heaven" continues to open.
Ngu Chi Son is not only beautiful because of its gates to heaven or tree
ladders, but also charming because of the changing colors of nature. Especially
in the fall, when the maple leaves begin to turn red and yellow, Ngu Chi Son
takes on a new, brilliant and poetic appearance.
After conquering the challenges on the mountain climbing journey, visitors will
be able to watch the sunset on the top of Ngu Chi Son. In particular, if lucky,
you will also have the opportunity to admire the scene of the sea of clouds
floating around the mountain.
From the top of Ngu Chi Son, visitors can admire the immense space with majestic
mountains, vast forests and green valleys.
