The HCMC-based sports event company Viet Adventure will hold its second annual adventure hike and cross country mountain bike ride at a Ba Den Mountain (Black Virgin Mountain) in Tay Ninh Province on September 25.
The two-to-five-hour challenge will climb the 982m mountain, that is well known for it Buddhist legends and discover its rich history and wildlife.
The race will take the hundreds of stairs through rugged bushland to the Cao Dai pagoda then finish with a steep climb that utilizes a via ferrata (cables and steel steps) to the summit. The downhill leg will be a scramble down loose scree that takes in some of the mountain’s most stunning scenery.
For the more adventurous a new addition to last year’s event will be a 25km mountain bike race will be held on difficult off-road terrain before the climb up the mountain.
Following the challenge, there will be an environmental trek. Participants will navigate along a challenging multi discipline adventure course, collecting rubbish and photographing the mountain slopes.
With the proceeds of the adventure hike, Viet Adventure will finance a clean-up of the mountain. All volunteers will be welcome for the environmental work in Mid-December.
Viet Adventure is committed to creating unforgettable adventure events, focusing on the natural beauty of the surrounding countryside to raise awareness on nature protection.
