Nature · thôn Vạn Thuận, xã Nam Ninh Hòa
Original name: Khu du lịch Ba Hồ
Three natural pools with waterfalls on a forest stream 25 kilometres north of the city. A route for those ready to walk over rocks and climb for the sake of cold fresh water.
According to the provincial tourism centre, the Ba Hồ stream rises on Hòn Sơn mountain, 660 metres high, and on its way down forms cascades and three large pools at different heights in primary forest. At the bottom the operator has built an eco-complex: bungalows, restaurants, a pool, kayaks and pedal boats, and a Skywalk platform. After the reform the address reads Vạn Thuận village, Nam Ninh Hòa commune; older materials give it as Ninh Ích in Ninh Hòa town.
Leave in the morning: the road north along the highway, then a footpath along the stream to the first pool. Beyond that the path turns into scrambling over boulders; not everyone reaches the second and third pools, and that is fine. People swim in the pools; jump only where you can see the depth. After coming down — the pool and lunch at the base. It is realistic to be back in the city by midday with time for the mud baths.
On 21.09.2026 the complex's website gave: hours 7:00–16:30, an entrance ticket of 135,000 VND including the pool, water games and the Skywalk. After rain the rocks are slippery and the flow stronger — in the rainy season and right after a downpour it is better to skip the route above the first pool. You need shoes with a grippy sole, not flip-flops.
Access, opening hours and prices can change. Confirm the conditions right before you pay or leave.

Before your visit
Three natural pools with waterfalls on a forest stream 25 kilometres north of the city. A route for those ready to walk over rocks and climb for the sake of cold fresh water.
Plan for roughly “half a day”. Add time for the road, weather, queues and an unhurried break.
It belongs to the “thôn Vạn Thuận, xã Nam Ninh Hòa” area. Open the map before leaving and check the actual entrance or meeting point.
Put your phone and documents in a dry bag: on the stretch between the pools you need your hands free. Opening hours, prices, access and weather can change, so confirm them right before you leave or pay.
