When coming to Phong Nha, don't miss out the experience of the 7 km Paradise Cave adventure in Phong Nha, that will be a stunning mix of natural wonder and physical challenge. 
I. What to Expect:
- Start in the lit first kilometre on boardwalks and staircases, viewing huge chambers filled with sparkling stalactites and stalagmites
 - Beyond the tourist path, you venture deeper in near-darkness using flashlights (a guide supplies headlamps and sandals)
 - Dynamic terrain involves crawling through narrow passages, trekking over slippery rocks, and sometimes chest-deep river wading or kayaking — with boats for non-swimmers .
 - Reach the “Heaven Well”, a magical skylight chamber where sunlight shines down onto an underground stream—often the highlight.
 - Lunch underground, riverside, often at this breathtaking spot
 - Return trip follows the same route back, exiting the cave around mid‑afternoon
 

 

 
II. Physical & Safety Factors:
- Moderate to strenuous: requires climbing, scrambling, river wading, kayak pushing.
 - Fitness recommended: outing includes uneven terrain, narrow tunnels, and humid conditions
 - Gear included: headlamps, helmets, sandals/shoes, guide support, and safety briefings
 

 
III. Tips for a Great 7 km Tour
- Bring moisture-wicking, quick-dry clothes, waterproof or trekking shoes with good grip, swimwear, towel.
 - Pack a waterproof bag, and consider a waterproof phone case if you want photos .
 - Check season/weather: during rainy months water can rise and tours might only go 4 km
 - Show respect for the cave: avoid touching formations; they take thousands of years to form
