Dreaming of a journey that challenges your body, frees your mind, and connects you with one of Southeast Asia’s most beautiful countries? Cycling from Saigon to Hanoi is more than just a trip — it’s an adventure that takes you from the tropical south to the cool, mountainous north, weaving through Vietnam’s coastlines, cities, highlands, and hidden villages.
Whether you’re a seasoned cyclist or an ambitious traveler seeking a deeper connection with Vietnam, this epic ride offers the experience of a lifetime.
While many opt for trains, flights, or buses, the cycling route from Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon) to Hanoi offers a unique opportunity to see Vietnam at handlebar level. It’s a test of endurance, but also a chance to slow down, meet locals, and experience landscapes that most tourists never reach.
🌴 Ride from tropical Mekong scenery to misty northern mountains
🏖 Pedal along stunning coastal roads and through fishing villages
🕌 Visit ancient cities like Hue and Hoi An
🍜 Taste regional food in every province
⛰ Conquer mountain passes like Hai Van and Bach Ma
This south-to-north direction allows you to gradually build strength as the terrain becomes more challenging toward the north.
While you can customize your journey, here’s a popular route broken down into stages:
Escape the bustle of the city and ride through peaceful canals, coconut plantations, and rice paddies. Highlights include Ben Tre, Can Tho, and floating markets.
Follow the coastline through Nha Trang, Qui Nhon, and Tuy Hoa. Expect blue skies, ocean views, and beach stops. Coastal riding is flat but scenic.
Cycle into Hue, cross the legendary Hai Van Pass into Da Nang, and explore Hoi An. These are cultural hotspots with a mix of history, architecture, and food.
Head inland toward Kon Tum, Pleiku, and Buon Ma Thuot. This region is cooler and more rugged, with coffee plantations and ethnic minority villages.
As you approach Ninh Binh and eventually Hanoi, you’ll ride past limestone karsts, rural farms, and winding rivers — a peaceful end to an epic trip.
