Responsible Travel Tips

Leave No Trace – Nature Deserves to Stay Wild

All Da Nang Waterfalls are a valuable natural heritage, and it is in our power to safeguard them. Always bring a small garbage bag with you in your backpack and pick up everything that is littered, food packaging, and even fruit peel. What is biodegradable to you might still hurt the local fauna.

Respect Local Culture and Private Land

Most waterfalls are situated close to or at the periphery of small villages or ethnic tribes such as Hoa Bac or Nam Yen. Be sure to request permission if passing through farmland, avoid being too boisterous, and dress demurely, particularly if part of the Da Nang itinerary includes sacred grounds such as The Marble Mountains Da Nang or local temples.

Avoid Peak Hours and Overtourism

Help minimize the impact people have on vulnerable ecosystems by visiting waterfalls in off-hours, early morning, or late afternoon. Not only is this good for the environment, but you’ll also have a more peaceful, calm experience with the Da Nang Waterfall you’re visiting.

How to Book Your Da Nang Waterfall Experience

If you prefer a safe, enriching, and smooth experience, nothing compares to a tour with a guide. You’ll have round-trip transportation from your hotel in Da Nang, admission fees, food, and above all, a local guide with knowledge of every secret corner, local anecdote, and safe swimming area.
