Today, we will cycle up and down along the rolling hills of northern Laos. The ride is quite difficult in some parts (altitude up to 1400m) and you may not up to it. However, there is nothing to worry as we have the supporting van escorting you along the way.

We will arrive in Kiu Kacham late afternoon, check in your simple guesthouse. It is time to enjoy the view with a cold beer.

After breakfast, you ride between 1000 and 1400 meters to Phou Khoun, which is up and down the whole way for 48km, with one big steep descent and ascent in the middle from 12-30km. You’ll be experiencing some steeper grades than the day before, but they are short. 

In the afternoon, you steadily climb for another 10 or so kilometers coming out of town, then it is a screaming descent for about 12km. Once you reach the bottom and cross the river there is a short very sharp climb to Kasi Hot Spring Resort, where the hot spring can help you recover from the cycling day.

It starts to get a lot easier from here than the previous days but still a bit of up and down in the middle of the ride. 

From the Hot Spring Resort to Kasi it is about 20kms of undulating hills but mostly descent. Here, we may stop to have a drink and recharge before continuing further.

From Kasi it’s flat for around 10kms, then you will climb a bit from 35-55km, then mostly downhill and flat for the last 30km into tourist hot spot Vang Vieng.

Check in your hotel in town before taking a short ride around the town.

Overnight in Vang Vieng

It’s still pretty hilly coming out of Vang Vieng and is up and down the whole way. But today, we just take a short ride to the village of Ban Thaheua, which locates at the north side of Nam Ngum lake.

Here you have ample time to stop and enjoy the view whilst sipping a cup of tea or coffee.

In the afternoon, we will take the 2-hour traditional boat along the Nam Ngum lake to Ban Thalat.

Upon arriving in Ban Thalat, check in your hotel overlooking the lake, which offers a truly amazing view during the sunset and sunrise.

After that, the road starts to be very easy until we reach Ban Keun in the late afternoon.
