Crazy 8 Mountain Bike Tour de Dalat
Description
- 37 km de bicyclette fantastique à la campagne - pinède - légumes et café - fermes à Da Lat - Vélos de montagne de haute qualité - Déjeuner pique-nique - Guides professionnels et agréés Le trajet total couvre environ 37 kilomètres et passe de Dalat à 1500 mètres d'altitude à une altitude d'environ 1650 mètres, puis redescend. Un bon tour pour ceux qui recherchent un terrain varié, un défi et quelque chose de légèrement technique. Crazy 8 part de Dalat et se dirige vers l’est, après le lac Xuan Huong et traverse une zone de fermes de fleurs. La route tourne à la terre au bout de 6 km et serpente autour du lac Victory avant de devenir une piste unique.

Itinéraire
Un trajet de 37 km et un autre classique de Dalat. C'est le défi le plus physique de nos manèges. Cette course commence par un bon échauffement avant de traverser une série de collines pénibles. Epargnez-vous pour la fin de celui-ci.
Des vues fantastiques tout au long du trajet et un excellent échantillonnage du terrain avec des lacs, des forêts de pins et de petites fermes rurales. Après cette section de piste unique, nous nous connectons dans une zone de forêts de pins à l'est de Dalat. C'est là que les collines commencent à s'élever devant vous. La piste varie entre une piste de terre plus large et une piste technique unique. Cette section de la randonnée a de très bonnes sections de roulement, des collines très difficiles et des descentes abruptes.
Après avoir franchi la colline la plus raide (mais heureusement l'une des plus courtes), nous arrivons à une belle clairière qui donne sur la zone forestière située au nord de Dalat. Nous prenons un repos bien mérité ici pour déjeuner. Le déjeuner comprend des légumes et des fruits frais, des baguettes avec un assortiment de garnitures et une pâtisserie à la française pour satisfaire votre palais. Dalat est connu comme le jardin potager du Vietnam et le déjeuner vous offre une chance d’essayer certains des délicieux produits de Dalat.
Après le déjeuner, nous sortons de la forêt pour rejoindre la magnifique région agricole située à l’embouchure de la vallée. Nous chevauchons brièvement une partie du sentier emprunté plus tôt et retournons à Dalat sur une route pavée pour terminer une figure 8 asymétrique et folle.

Or tour guide Vin was very friendly, funny, and patient. After he realised we weren't built for the full 37 KMs he took us the shorter route instead which was easier and only 22 km in total so anyone considering if they can do the full thing should take that into account. Would recommend!
Today I did a Mountainbike tour together with Na and Missi. The two of them are just lovely. They explained very well where we are going and what are the challenges. They always took care of us. First you have to drive on the streets through Da Lat but you’re then entering the forests. The trails are rocky, but it’s lot of fun to cope with them. It’s exhausting going up the hills but in the end you’ll have a really nice view. We had a delicious picnic and on the way back to Da Lat we stopped for some fresh juice. It was lot of fun to chat with Na and Missi during the breaks - they are really funny. I can definitely recommend this trip!
Hi Sarah D, Thank you very much for the review of your mountain biking trip in Dalat. Glad to know your trip was great and the guides were also friendly as per the expectations. Hope to have a chance to be with you on our adventures in Vietnam next time! Best regards,
The name says at all :-). Steep descends and steep climbs, but the perfect way to explore Dalat and her surroundings. Trip goes through the city to the pine forrests and flower houses. Material was in top condition, guides were very friendly, included lunch was great. We would recommend this tour to everyone that desires a good MTB challenge.
Hi Slagtim, Thank you very much for the review of Crazy 8 Mountain Bike Tour from Dalat. We are glad you loved the trip with our friendly guides on the great trail. We hope to have you back next time! Best regards!
I had an amazing time on my ride! It was everything and more than I expected. After looking for many mountain biking options in south eats Asia, this was the best one yet and I will definitely be back! I did the crazy 8 ride, if you are looking for a tough cross country ride through villages, up big hills and down steep ones. If you are questioning your ability you will probably be better off doing the northern exposure ride. My guide was great, we chatted the whole time. Food was awesome as well.
Hi cswwillson, Thank you for reaching out to Phat Tire Ventures Vietnam and sharing your Crazy 8 experience. We are so happy to know we made your mountain biking day in Da Lat memorable. We appreciate your sharing and recommendation. Hope to see you again soon! Best regards,
This tour is for absolute experts. Even the guides takes hours to complete, and will sometimes have to get off and walk. We ended up taking the easier trail they offer (22 km) and that was just the right amount of leisure/challenging. However, my friend did take a nasty fall on the last descent, and lost most of the skin on her arm. Then she had to ride another hour out. So keep injuries in mind if you decide to conquer the crazy 8. Gorgeous views from any trail.
Dear Kendra4568, Thank you very much for taking time to write the review and give the recommendation. We genuinely hope your friend is ok after the bike fall. We noted this issue to improve the description to make sure it correctly describes the routing to our next clients. Hope all is well! Best regards,
My girlfriend and I decided to do the Crazy 8 mountain bike trail in Da Lat. We were keen mountain bikers before leaving on our travels but haven’t been on a bike for 6 months and completely under estimated this trail. My girlfriend struggled with a few of the steep, rocky decents and spent a lot of the time pushing the bike. In the end the guides took us on an easier route. The guides (Linh & Dom) were fantastic and really patient and we can’t thank them enough. This review sounds as if we didn’t have fun but the trip was amazing from start to finish. Just don’t underestimate Crazy 8 and there are plenty of other rides for all levels.
