The start on Wednesday is a little delayed because of a 200M investment to preferred conditions at Vietcombank. It pays to be a “Titan” customer, just hit the limit with AML laws.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are a few mountains in V\u0169ng T\u00e0u, but actually accessible are only a few:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- Nghinh Phong, N\u00fai Nh\u1ecf<\/strong><\/a>, 138<\/strong> m, Wikipedia – Christ of V\u0169ng T\u00e0u<\/a>, its more about the largest Christian statue across Asia<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- N\u00fai Tao Ph\u00f9ng<\/strong>, 176<\/strong> m, H\u1ea3i \u0111\u0103ng V\u0169ng T\u00e0u<\/a> (Vung Tao lighthouse) – closed during the night, good view over to the statue of Christ<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- N\u00fai T\u01b0\u01a1ng K\u1ef3, 245<\/strong> m, N\u00fai L\u01a1n<\/strong><\/a>, but now has the Du L\u1ecbch H\u1ed3 M\u00e2y with 400k entrance. You can also take the cable care there, some 450k<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- N\u00fai V\u0169ng Ma\u00fd<\/strong>, 220<\/strong> m, nice round trip on all trails<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
N\u00fai Ch\u1ee9a Chan<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is the first official visit. I’ve been at the basement already on 2026\/03\/01 but had no intention to actually go up. And for 2 years already you can’t go to the top – either of them. The whole mountain is a construction zone since 2024. You see the big holes in the forest when coming from the West, from far away. One day you will have 4 car lanes leading to the top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
N\u00fai T\u00e0 C\u00fa<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Two times the charm. While I only made it to the front gate with N\u00fai T\u00e0 C\u00fa, this time at N\u00fai T\u00e0 C\u00fa I wanted to reach the top by foot. A little exhausted from the previous day I took way to many breaks, but eventually made it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
N\u00fai Brah Yang<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This was worth 8 months of planning. Initially I wanted already stop here on my way to the wedding in Hanoi in October 2025. And it is too far from Saigon for just a day trip. On my way to my third Half-Marathon, this time in Can Tho, in September 2025 I stopped in and talked with Tri Anh’s mother, since she manages a hotel near the mountain. But the plan changed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Early April 2026 I got 6 consecutive days of, so I thought about combining several mountains. But it was also the time of the memorial, and eventually there was only time for Daytrip to N\u00fai Lang Biang<\/a>. A new chance appeared at the end of April, and I started the 5 Mountains in 5 days<\/a>. Brah Yang was number 4!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
N\u00fai Th\u1ecb V\u1ea3i<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I am a little tired after the N\u00fai Brah Yang<\/a> a day before. And have to be back early in Saigon, so enough time for a short loop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
