Phia Po peak

Phia Po Lang Son peak is becoming a new destination for young people. If you are too bored with the stuffiness of the city, try packing your backpack and going to this land to feel the endless beauty of nature. Not as famous as Binh Lieu of Quang Ninh or Fansipan of Sa Pa, Phia Po Lang Son peak is still attractive enough to those who love to explore new things. This place contains many interesting things waiting for you to discover. Phia Po is located in a complex of 80 mountains in the Mau Son range, with an altitude of 1,541m above sea level. While Mau Son peak is called Mother Mountain, Phia Po is called Cha Mountain by local people because in the Tay language, Phia means mountain, Po means father. To find Phia Po, you can follow the address of Mau Son commune, Loc Binh district, Lang Son province. Phia Po Lang Son peak is far from the city center. Lang Son is nearly 30km, is a relatively new trekking destination in Lang Son, very suitable for those who love to move and learn new things. Phia Po is more than 180km from Hanoi City, travel time is about 4 hours. Tourists follow the Bac Giang - Lang Son highway, then enter Highway 1A, pass through Lang Son City, then turn right onto Highway 4B, continuing for nearly 30 kilometers to reach the foot of Phia Po mountain. Lang Son has the famous Mau Son peak, known to many tourists. In addition, this place also has the equally majestic Phia Po peak, which still retains its wild beauty and is not known to many people. Phia Po is called by many beautiful names such as "Mount Everest of Lang" or "roof of Lang Son", just hearing this is enough to excite mountain climbing enthusiasts. With an altitude of more than 1,500m, Lang Son tourists should spend 2 days and 1 night to conquer Phia Po peak and recuperate. According to Phia Po trekking experience, you should choose days with nice, sunny, no rain weather to climb the mountain. The ideal departure time is morning, about 7-8 o'clock. The Phia Po trekking journey includes 2 stages. The first stage of climbing the mountain is about 3.5km, from the foot of the mountain to the stopping point, camping, and overnight stay. The next stage moves to the highest peak. The total distance for 2 days of trekking is about 14 km. Visitors climbing Phia Po can also experience many different terrains. First is the old forest and dry stream. The path is narrow, with many tree roots and large rocks. The higher you go, the more beautiful the landscape. A vast steppe is welcoming climbers. It can be said that the beautiful and peaceful scenery is like Switzerland. The special thing is that each time, this grass field changes color. If in the summer, this place wears a blue color, full of vitality, then in the fall, it turns into magical burning grass like in the movies. On the coldest winter days, the withered grass is covered with clouds, making it look even more mysterious. Spring comes, bell flowers bloom, beautifying the nature of this place. Just saying this, you can already look forward to the beautiful landscape at the top of Phia Po Lang Son. Surrounding the steppe are towering mountains that stretch endlessly. A beautiful scene that is difficult to describe in words. In general, Phia Po Lang Son peak has beautiful grass slopes, you will go through maple leaf forest, primary forest, reed grass forest, bamboo forest and even rhododendron forest before reaching the top of the mountain. The spine of the Phia Po dinosaur is about 500m long, 2m wide, rising in the middle, with eye-catching abysses on both sides. Along this spine, there are also large horizontal rocks that look exactly like the vertebrae of a dinosaur. Not only is it a virtual living spot, but it is also a spot for tourists to hunt for the ocean of floating clouds in Lang Son. Not as long and dreamy as the spine of the Binh Lieu dinosaur (Quang Ninh), but the spine of the Phia Po dinosaur is enough to make you feel the vast and majestic beauty of the mother of creation. Standing in front of rolling mountains, people become very small. Before your eyes there is only nature, heaven and earth, white clouds, deep green forests... Passing through the forest, everything seems to light up. That is the peak of Phia Po Lang Son right before your eyes. The highest point of the peak is marked by a milestone erected by previous climbers. At this moment, emotions seemed to burst. Vast scenery appeared, the airy and vast scenery seemed to take away all the fatigue of the previous arduous journey. Don't forget to take out your phone or camera to save these memorable moments. Phia Po peak attracts tourists especially in winter and spring because the weather is stable and not hot at this time. However, depending on your arranged time, you can trek to Phia Po peak at any time. It can be said that Phia Po is one of the mountains with diverse landscapes, very beautiful and relatively easy to climb, suitable even for non-professional climbers. This mountain is truly worthy for you to explore at least once, however I believe that if you go once, you will return to this place a second or third time in different seasons of the year.
