Listening to Bach Ma forest

In the quiet of noon, from the rustling of the forest trees to the babbling sound of the stream... is enough to help people recharge with positive energy. Sitting on the carpet of dry leaves, looking at the sky, watching the clouds drifting over Bach Ma peak is a strange feeling that cannot be found anywhere else.

From the starting point, it takes about thirty minutes by car to reach the parking lot at the top of Bach Ma. The winding road, one side leaning against the mountain, the other side overlooking Cau Hai lagoon. Each hairpin bend is not difficult for the driver who already knows every corner of this road.

The air in the mountains was fresh, with a few towering ancient trees appearing in the distance. The higher the car climbed, the cooler the air flowed through the windows. The car slowly rolled through a few bends with streams of water flowing across the road. Looking at the small streams of water weaving between the rocks to join the larger streams at Khe Su, Khe Tre..., one could see the power of nature.

Exploring the trail up to Vong Hai Dai, which reaches an altitude of 1,450m above sea level, is an interesting thing. Only about 900m long, this trail is suitable for those who love the experience of walking, touching every piece of soil and tree with their own hands.

The nature of Bach Ma mountain forest is truly magical. In the midst of the deep green, you can still hear the howling of gibbons from afar. They only live in isolated forests, where there are no human footprints. This shows that one of the factors that creates the unique value of Bach Ma National Park is the certain distance between humans and nature. Every step must be gentle, just enough to move safely, without affecting the living environment of animals.

This place has produced many species of animals that if we do not set foot here, we probably will not be able to see. Around the route to the top of Bach Ma, research groups have recorded many rare and endangered bird species such as Brown Herons, Star Pheasants... And also species with colorful feathers such as Green Broadbill, Red Broadbill... They create species diversity for Bach Ma.

Watching each beat of the wings and the flight of the birds in Bach Ma forest, it seemed as if they were trying to pull the sky closer to the ground. Groups of dozens of birds called to each other to find food. At times, the whole forest was silent. Suddenly, from the forest above, birds rushed down into the deep abyss.

When arriving at Vong Hai Dai, all fatigue disappeared. The lush green grass gently touched my tired feet. Each rapid breath gradually became regular again. Conquering Bach Ma peak to hear clearly the beat in my own chest.

And the main reward is to be able to look out over Cau Hai lagoon, in the distance are white clouds swaying in the wind. Out there, the blue sea of the homeland is waiting for your free-spirited soul. That interesting harmony reminds people to cherish the beautiful moments of nature. Bach Ma peak is still there - steadfast through the changes of the earth and sky.
