The History of the Trail

For generations, the ancestors of the K’ho people (a minority ethnic group living in Da Lat) have traversed forests and mountains, carrying heavy baskets filled with produce on their backs. They ventured along winding and treacherous paths, embarking on journeys that lasted days or even months, all with one goal: to reach the distant plains to trade for salt and essential items that couldn’t be grown in their homeland. Each step they took was not just a physical journey but also a vessel carrying countless stories, memories, and legends deeply embedded in the soul of the K’ho people who lived under the majestic Lomburr Mountain.

Through the generations, they vividly recall the times when every step crossed streams, forged through dense forests, and carried the weight of goods over the Lomburr range to exchange commodities and seek rare medicinal herbs.

The footprints of the K’ho seem to stretch endlessly, from the pristine valleys deep within the jungle, over the legendary Lomburr peak, and down toward Krong Pha. Now, we invite you to reverse the flow of time, retrace the historic trail, and immerse yourself in the unique K’ho culture a priceless heritage preserved only through oral traditions. Listen, understand, and admire the small yet resilient people of the mountains, whose every step is marked by courage and an indomitable spirit.
