Our adventurous group of trekkers set off on the 17th November, ready to begin their adventure: trekking up Mount Fansipan in the Northern area of Vietnam.
Days 1-3
The group began their challenge by trekking through some villages in Sapa, passing paddy fields and then up hills through lush bamboo forests.

Gave them the chance to trek through a range of undergrowth and streams before camping overnight on the mountain itself.
Days 6 and 7
Saw the trekkers descend down the mountain, back towards Sapa, taking in views of Lai Chau and beyond.
Day 8
Was a chance to rest after their achievement and take part in an optional walking tour to Ta Phin village before transferring to the overnight train bound for Hanoi.
The group arrived back into the UK in the early hours of Sunday 26th November, tired but full of unforgettable memories of an amazing achievement!
