Step 8: Canyoning in Dalat

The dunes are basically the only thing you can really do in Mui Ne so after to night, we continued to Dalat, a city in the mountains with a very comparable climate to an average German city. The top tourist attraction here is the canyoning which consists of a mix of sliding down waterfalls are down sail on a rope while the water is falling on you plus some jumps from cliffs in murky water.
Everything takes place in a beautiful rainforest overgrown deep valley that is only crowded with tourist at the stop where everybody has lunch.
The same night the people from our hostel, Mr. Peace Guesthouse, took us out for karaoke in the next karaoke-bar where you can rent a full room with TV-screens on every side and disco lights.
Saying that the Hosts were really into karaoke would not describe it right, it was more like an addiction to sing in every song and make a complete foul of them self in a funny way.
Next day we went to see the Elephant Waterfall which is one of the bigger waterfalls of Asia and really pretty because the rocks it falls over are made of basalt pillars and everything is overgrown with plants.
In the afternoon and after riding 30 kilometres back without noticing that I had a flat tire we went to the so called “crazy house” which is a hotel that only has got a few rooms was build by an artist that made it look like it grew itself. Everything looked like I was in a farytale and even the people working there were wearing a coat that made them look like elves. A really fake, weird and beautiful place.

Sliding Down Rapids backwards, only problem was that I am to tall to not hit my back on the last rock, but still great fun

Jumping from a 12 Meter Cliff into murky water








The so called washing-machine, the rope ends one meter over the water surface but none knows that before
