Itinerary description
Hiking from Sapa to ta van. Beautiful landscape crossing rice fields.
1: in our opinion cat cat is totally unnecessary. Is more like a folk market than a village; tourist trap.
2: is easy to follow the track. There are a lot of groups guided by Hmong women... in case of doubt; follow them. Everybody is going to Ta van...
3: after the waterfall follow the itinerary. You will find a road after a slope (looks like a track, but is a road.) From there to Sapa are 10km following the road. Is expendable. All the way is up and you won’t nothing special. Only worth if you want to walk more. You can arrange a motorcycle or van to Sapa
