Camping to see the highest mountain in Binh Phuoc

Camping by Thac Mo hydroelectric lake, visitors can see the Milky Way, the highest Ba Ra mountain in Binh Phuoc…



Thac Mo hydropower reservoir is an artificial lake in Binh Phuoc, about 150 km from Ho Chi Minh City, taking 3.5 hours to travel. The lake has a green landscape, surrounded by many industrial tree plantations and wide lawns.

Nguyen Thanh Tuan, born in 1986, lives in Ho Chi Minh City, and knows the lake area as a camping spot from a hike to the highest Ba Ra mountain in Binh Phuoc a few years ago. When he reached the top, he saw a large lake with wild grasslands. Through research, he knew it was Thac Mo hydroelectricity tiger. The location is a bit far from Ho Chi Minh City, so he took three days off to make the trip.

According to Tuan, the lawns only gradually appear in the low water season from May to October. In which, summer is the most beautiful because the air is cool and fresh. This area is not too hot or too cold, suitable for picnicking.

“There are not only vast grasslands here for camping but also fruit gardens, which are both delicious and cheap. In addition, there is a wharf, where you can put both motorbikes or cars on a boat to go to the other side of the lake. is Phuoc Long district”, Tuan shared. The train runs 24/24, so visitors can enjoy the cool air, watch the large lake, and look at the majestic Ba Ra mountain.

A tree with a funny shape that Tuan named “a lonely heart-shaped tree”.

In this season, on the way from Ho Chi Minh City to Thac Mo hydroelectric lake, the durian is laden with fruit until the harvest season. Visitors can buy to support relatives. Want to enter the garden, you just need to ask the owner, do not arbitrarily pick in without permission.

Tuan camped in the middle of the meadow. The scene here becomes blurred and more majestic in the late afternoon. “Although camping outdoors, I don’t feel worried about security because, through contact with relatives, I feel completely confident. This is a safe place, the people are very gentle and cute.” , Tuan said.

The weather in the rainy season can be unpredictable, it can be sunny but it can turn cloudy and rainy. When camping, visitors must prepare waterproof accessories. This location is quite far from the center, so you have to buy food, and drinking water, and fill up the gas tank in advance.

Due to the fresh air, there are few houses around, so there is no artificial light. Campers at night can watch the full moon and the shimmering galaxy. Note, to have this experience before camping, you need to choose a clear, no-rainy day.
