Description

Hang Lùng Khúy (Lung Khuy Cave, Dragon In The Rock Cave) is named after the nearby village. Located high up on the mountain side a visit requires some walking to the cave. From the village it's a 1.2 km hike uphill, it's also possible to drive a narrow road with a motorbike, the end of this road is only 200 m from the cave entrance. The cave was discovered in 2015 and was developed as a show cave and opened to the public in the same year. It seems the province tries to lure tourists into the far north of the country, and this is actually the first show cave in the province. They invested 5 billion dong, which equals about 180,000 €. It was developed with an elevated trail made of wood and steel. The trail to the cave is paved with natural rock, and partly has railings.
