Ban Viet Lake in the season of changing leaves.

Cao Bang province has many famous scenic spots such as Ban Gioc Waterfall, Lenin Stream, Nguom Ngao Cave, Mount Mat Than, Thang Hen Lake... However, this area also boasts an impressive but lesser-known landmark: Ban Viet Lake in Trung Khanh district. Ban Viet Lake is an artificial freshwater lake hidden deep within a natural forest in the area of ​​Phong Chau and Tan Phong communes. Besides its function of regulating water for agricultural irrigation, the lake is also a tourist destination with picturesque scenery. The lake covers an area of ​​5 hectares, is over 6 km long, and 50 meters deep. It is divided into four branches with a diverse and rich ecosystem and vegetation. Ecotourism is most suitable here, with activities such as camping, bonfires, singing, or cycling around the lake to enjoy the tranquility. For those seeking a more thrilling experience, visitors can go trekking through the forest. What could be more delightful than walking on the rustling dry leaves in a quiet forest, inhaling the natural scent of plants and flowers, and listening to the chirping of birds in the sun-drenched trees?

Ban Viet Lake also offers unique water activities. On rafts, visitors are guided by locals across the lake to a magical wonderland. Amidst the vast expanse of water and mountains, sunlight sparkles through the trees, reflecting the emerald-green surface of the lake, mirroring the majestic mountain range and the gently drifting white clouds.
