LRM 1200 Highland Vietnam is a 1,200 km long-distance cycling journey starting in Vung Tau and heading inland through the wild landscapes of Southern and Central Vietnam.
The route takes riders through Cat Tien National Park, Con Ó Pass, Ta Dung National Park, and Ea So Nature Reserve, before turning back toward the coast through Cam Ranh, Nui Chua National Park, Phan Rang, and Phan Thiet.
From the highlands to the coast, riders will experience some of Vietnam’s most diverse landscapes — dense forests, mountain passes, highland plateaus, and long coastal roads — before following the coastline through Ho Tram and back to Vung Tau, where the 1,200 km journey comes to an end.
This 1200km randonnée is a LRM event in association with Audax Club Parisien. Riders will have 90 hours (read more detail below) to complete this challenging but beautiful course.
