T'Nung Lake ( Ia Nueng), Gia Lai Province, Vietnam


4.0 (53 reviews) Spent Ranking #1 in Pleiku Bodies of Water

Well worth a visit while in the Central Highlands, one of the relatively untouristed areas in Vietnam

Pleiku and the Central Highlands are often neglected during visits to Vietnam, for some reason, a great many people have never been to this area, which is a great shame, as there is a great deal of history here and spectacular mountains and triple-canopy jungle: Pleiku is easily reached from Quy Nhon along Route 19, once one of the most dangerous roads in Vietnam in the French and American wars, and the An Khe and Mang Yang passes are well worth the effort to see them. From Pleiku, Kontum is only 50 kilometres north along Route 14 - I prefer to stay in Kontum as it is easier to get around than Pleiku - and from Kontum, Polei Kleng, Tan Canh, Dak To, Plei Can and the Three Borders area is easily reached in one day, although mostly I spend at least three to four days in this area, as with a permit from the Province police chief, it is possible to visit off-the-track Montagnard villages.

    It was ok
    The lake was about 15 minutes on bike from the city centre. It was quite enjoyable while sitting on the lake shore to take a deep breath of fresh air. Other than that, nothing more to explore.
