4. Terrain & Landscape
● In general, we have to walk 6-7 km per day through the forest, mainly on indistinct trails, with several dense sections. Although there aren’t high altitudes, the terrain in Cuc Phuong is tropical rainforest on limestone mountains, featuring flat forest areas interspersed with limestone mountain forests, divided by shallow, mossy, and slippery streams, as well as jagged rocky slopes. The terrain is diverse; while not too difficult, it still challenges you in its own way.
● Tropical rainforests are characterized by their dense foliage and large canopies. This trip doesn’t offer majestic landscapes or cloud-covered mountain peaks like in the Northwest. Most of the exploration will take place in forested areas, shaded by large tree canopies, with occasional brighter patches where no large trees are present. All around us will be trees and more large trees.
5. Physical Fitness vs Mental Strength
● Both of these factors are necessary for a successful expedition. With a daily distance of 6-7 km in the dense forest, you don’t need to be a marathon runner or have many years of experience hiking. If you enjoy physical activity and exercise regularly, and if you can walk 5 km on flat terrain, you can complete this journey. However, before the trip, make sure to walk 5-7 km daily to prepare.
● Umove Adventure recommends bringing a backpack of about 10L - 30L with personal gear weighing around 5 kg. Personal items like clothing, water, sleeping bags, and air mattresses will be carried individually. Other equipment like tents will be distributed based on the physical capabilities of each group member. The guides and rangers will carry shared items such as cooking equipment and food. The total weight you may need to carry can reach up to 8 kg.
● We will weigh your backpack before departure to redistribute equipment as needed. The Gear List we recommend has already factored in the maximum weight you should carry.
6. Camping
● The campsite will be chosen by the rangers guiding the way, usually at a flat and safe location, ensuring a comfortable night of camping.
● Umove Adventure provides a 4-person tent for 2 people, along with air mattresses and sleeping bags. Additionally, UA provides chairs, tables, and tarps to make the camping experience in the forest more comfortable and convenient.
● Camping deep in the forest means there won’t be any water for bathing or restrooms. For sanitation, the natural method of digging and covering waste will be used.
7. Food & Water
● Meals are simple but nutritious. Lunch is served at the national park's restaurant, offering a variety of vegetables, meat, rice, soup, and dessert. Dinner in the forest consists of grilled meat, stir-fried or boiled vegetables, and other hot dishes. Breakfast includes instant noodles or bread with eggs, along with tea or coffee.
● Water will be carried by each person. In the forest, we don’t have abundant access to clean water, so we will collect water from streams in the forest and boil it for use.
8. Protecting the environment together
● Umove Adventure supports and practices Leave No Trace principles in each program and outdoor activities itself. We also encourage our customers and partners to apply to Leave No Trace principles when traveling in the outdoor environment. See details about the Leave No Trace tại đây
● In order to limit the use of single-use plastic, Umove Adventure encourages each of us to prepare for ourselves a bottle of water with a 1L capacity for daily water refilling.
● On the tour, tourists comply with the instructions and regulations on environmental protection at the destination.
9. Medical assistance
● If you have cardiovascular disease or bone and joint diseases (knees, ankles, shoulder joints, etc.), you should consult your doctor before deciding to join the trip.
