The familiar trekking route, with its canopy of forest trees or low grassy hills, now looks more unusual and magical with a layer of transparent ice.
According to Giàng Hạnh Phúc, a local guide in Mù Cang Chải, on January 11th, the peak of Tà Xùa in Trạm Tấu district (Yên Bái province) was covered in thick, dense ice. The ice blanketed the trekking route, offering a unique experience for tourists.
Nguyen Trong Cung was also fortunate enough to encounter this fascinating phenomenon during his trekking trip to Lao Than peak (Y Ty, Lao Cai ). The grass, trees, and small flowers were all covered in a layer of frost.

Previously, ice continuously appeared on the summit of Fansipan for six days at the end of 2024 and the beginning of 2025, sparking curiosity and excitement among tourists. However, today, the roof of Indochina is sunny and warm, with no frost.
According to information from the National Center for Meteorological and Hydrological Forecasting, on the night of January 11th, the cold air mass continued to intensify, bringing severe cold weather to mountainous and midland areas of Northern Vietnam.
The lowest temperatures during this cold spell in Northern Vietnam and the Thanh Hoa - Nghe An region will generally range from 9 to 12 degrees Celsius, in the mountainous areas of Northern Vietnam from 6 to 9 degrees Celsius, and in some high mountainous areas below 3 degrees Celsius.
