Cuc Phuong National Park is a lush, tropical paradise tucked away in Ninh Binh province — and there’s no better way to explore it than on two wheels. Biking through Cuc Phuong National Park offers a thrilling adventure through dense rainforest, limestone mountains, and ancient biodiversity, making it one of the most unique cycling destinations in Vietnam.
If you’re craving a nature-filled, active escape that blends history, wildlife, and breathtaking landscapes, Cuc Phuong is the perfect choice.
Founded in 1962, Cuc Phuong is Vietnam’s first and largest national park, spanning over 22,000 hectares. Cycling here is not just about exercise — it’s about immersion. You’ll pedal under towering canopies, listen to birdsong, and breathe in the cool forest air.
The roads through the park are well-paved yet peaceful, winding deep into the jungle with minimal vehicle traffic — perfect for both beginner and experienced cyclists.
Cuc Phuong is a haven for nature lovers. While biking, you might spot colorful butterflies, rare birds, or even langurs. The park is home to over 300 bird species and endangered primates — including the Delacour’s Langur and the Black Gibbon.
You’ll also have the chance to stop and explore the Endangered Primate Rescue Center and the Turtle Conservation Center, two incredible conservation efforts supported within the park.
By biking instead of driving, you reduce your carbon footprint and travel responsibly. It’s a sustainable way to explore one of Vietnam’s most important biodiversity hotspots while staying active and connecting with nature.
Pedal to the thousand-year-old Cho Chi Tree, a towering, sacred symbol of the forest. The surrounding trail is dense, humid, and full of mysterious jungle energy. It’s a cyclist’s dream ride through deep greenery.
This limestone cave reveals archaeological treasures dating back thousands of years. Lock your bike and hike up to explore where prehistoric humans once lived — a powerful reminder of the area’s cultural richness.
Take a quick detour to visit the small but informative Cuc Phuong Botanical Garden, which showcases native plants and herbs. Nearby, the park museum introduces the park’s flora, fauna, and local ethnic groups.
