Itinerary description

I started this road a bit randomly from the main road going down to see Sapa Sakura tea plantation. The landscapes being so beautiful, I decided to continue and ended up walking 10 km to Sapa via CatCat. Didn’t visit CatCat (150.000 VTN for entrance) but had a good beef Pho at the door of the village at a shop selling fresh beef and packed food. Along your way you will find small shops selling water and coffee too. This is not a difficult trek but if it’s raining it could become muddy and slippery I imagine. Highly recommended !
