This is an abbreviated itinerary with the shortest time so that trekkers who love nature and like challenges but don't have much time can reach the top of Klang and explore the most wonderful points of this mysterious mountain. K'lang Peak, standing at 2000 meters in Tay Giang, vividly brings to life the scenes from the movie Avatar with its lush moss forest stretching from the height of 1500 meters to the summit. This location also boasts the largest ancient rhododendron forest in Vietnam. From March to June, the rhododendrons bloom brilliantly, creating stunning white flower streaks amidst the green forest that cannot be found anywhere else.

- Trekking Notes.
- In two days of trekking at Do Quyen Peak, every day on average, we take 6-8km on the clear trail (many people use). The trekking path has a high elevation, especially a steep part of almost 1km at the mountain feet, hence for those with less physical exercise will be challenging. For those terrains, we need to have trekking shoes that have high-quality adhesion to hiking. Moreover, during the first trekking part, we had time to cross the stream. If the water level is high, we can take off our shoes to cross to avoid getting the shoes wet. We could bring sandals to cross the stream and the campsite.
- The steepness of K’lang Mountain is large, so trekking downhill will create a huge force on the knees, We should do the knees bandage to support the knees if your knees are weak.
- Food and drink
- All meals in the forest are quite simple; however, they are rich in nutrition and bring the unique taste of that local. All the main meals including chicken or pork grilled, pork cooked with jungle vegetables, boiled jungle vegetables or stir fry, and fried egg are eaten with bamboo rice or sticky rice. Dessert is a popular fruit like oranges and watermelon. Breakfast is often instant noodles or cassava soup cooked with jungle vegetables.
- Daily drinking water is water bottles. During the K’lang trekking trip, besides the personal water that is brought by each person (around 1L/person), a porter will carry a certain amount of water to drink for the next day.
- To limit the use of single-use plastic, we recommend that you bring a water bottle (reusable type) to refill water every day.
- Hot drinks such as coffee and tea are available for breakfast at the campsite
- We recommend each of us prepare snacks on our own (biscuits, energy bars, chocolate,...) in case you need them.

- Double tents (2 people), mattresses, and personal sleep bags are given at K’lang Peak.
- Each tent is given a light to use for each tent and for dinner time.
- At the campsite in K’lang Peak, each person has 20L to shower, so we need to save and consider the amount of water that we use.

Tay Giang is nestled between the mountains and forests, offering cool weather year-round. However, the best time to explore the ancient K'lang forest is from late December to September of the following year. During this period, the weather in K'lang is cool, and the paths are dry, making it ideal for trekking activities amidst the magnificent scenery of the primeval forest.
You will need to inform K'lang Adventure about your vegetarian or dietary requirements before booking the tour. We will check if the destination can meet those needs and inform you accordingly. Typically, K'lang Adventure will have vegetarian options available for customers depending on the tour location.
The campsites are usually located near the summit of K'lang or by the streams deep in the forest, so there will be no cell phone reception or very weak signal.
