The purpose of this cache is to make you cross hamlets and forests rarely visited by tourists. This circuit covers about ten km of dirt roads accessible only by foot, by bike or by motorbike. If using a 4x4 car, ask the driver if his vehicle is suitable .


Suoi Tien is not a big tourist attraction, famous and charming as the beach, but it is attractive to all visitors by beautiful natural scenery and pristine. Such destinations are suitable for those who want to have a quiet resort space, not too crowded at other famous tourist attractions.
