We have a large article on Vietnamese food. Most travelers will land themselves in a tourist town of some sort, even if it is a small one. These days, it is possible to get a pizza nearly any place that could attract a single tourist.
The loop, the way I plotted it is ridden in a counterclockwise direction. A large portion of the early riding is in a NE direction so you won’t be riding into the sun but have it on your back and as the sun lowers it will be lighting up the red rocks for some spectacular views.
The best overall motorbike riding in Vietnam
Flagstaff is a busy place and good option for hotels as there is loads to choose from in every price range.
Use the QL14 G to connect the Ho Chi Minh Road to Danang. Don’t bother with the Ql14 B which looks like it may provide some extra Ho Chi Minh Road gold. Unfortunately the Ql14B is rather tedious which leaves the Ql14 G as the correct coastal and mountain connector.
It’s time to ride back into Arizona to see one of the least visited National Monuments. Talking to local Native Indians they think it’s because the road is dead a lot of visitors simply don’t think it’s worth the trip up and back…let me tell you it is, IT REALLY IS!!!
The alternative to the Hai Van Pass
- Lake Tegernsee sparkles in the sun
- Traditionally served in extra-large mugs
- Equipment dries on the neighboring pasture fence
Head up the paved road some 27km from Chinle to where it ends, make the left turn, and follow this paved road to the end and find a place to park. Now it’s time to walk a few hundred meters around a corner and if possible be there an hour or two before sunset for the most spectacular light.
This is one of the highest points of the ride, best to visit in the early afternoon to allow you time to get further east and slight lower in elevation.
Get to Route 160 and in Kayenta fill up with fuel and follow the Route 163 towards Monument Valley. Opinions differ in this area if entering the park or looking from a distance offers the best view of this iconic area. Personally, I prefer the long distance iconic view 20km past the AZ/ UT Stateline
