Khe Sanh is a town in the mountainous district of Huong Hoa, western Quang Tri, once a fierce battlefield with landmarks such as Lao Bao prison, Ta Con airport... Today, Khe Sanh has emerged as a new eco-tourism destination for visitors to Quang Tri with its mild climate and lush natural scenery.
One of the tourist attractions in Khe Sanh at the end of the year is Rao Quan hydroelectric lake surrounded by maple forests in the red and yellow leaf season.
The maple trees are racing to change color.
The scenery of Rao Quan hydroelectric lake is peaceful and quiet, where local people often graze cattle, fish...
Ta Puong Waterfall is also a notable adventure tourist destination on the Khe Sanh tourist route.
Mr. Le Luu Dung, CEO of Jungle Boss - a company specializing in discovery tours, shared: "Sau Sau Islet (the name he uses to refer to the land island floating in the middle of the hydroelectric lake) has many small holes around it because this place was once the most heavily bombed along the 17th parallel. Over time, this place has gradually changed and put on a new coat with the harmony of mountains, forests, water, and wind, bringing an unusually peaceful beauty."
The maple forest is in its most beautiful season of the year when the layers of tree canopies gradually turn bright yellow and red. The maple tree, also known as the sau sau tree, white cross-flower tree... will change its leaves color from November to January every year.
Khe Sanh area and especially around Rao Quan hydroelectric lake have moderately steep hilly terrain, trails, lakes, waterfalls... suitable for outdoor activities such as walking, camping, SUP rowing for visitors of all ages.
Rao Quan Lake's water is a charming blue, surrounded by maple forests and undulating hills. From afar, it looks like a scene from Europe.
The climate in Khe Sanh, Huong Hoa has two distinct seasons: rainy and dry. The rainy season starts from September to November, the period from November to January is the dry season, which is also the time when the wind changes from green to yellow and red. The natural picture of Khe Sanh at this time is more poetic and brilliant than ever.
Camping by the lake and staying overnight here can give visitors many interesting experiences such as watching the sunset over the mountains, wind power fields, watching the sunset on the lake, fishing, and grazing very simply.
Currently in Khe Sanh there are not many tours, visitors coming here should carefully research the travel agency and equip themselves with the necessary skills to have fun.
A 2-day, 1-night experience tour costs about 2 million VND, including pick-up and drop-off at Khe Sanh, boating on the lake, SUP, tents, barbecue meals...
