We play to arrive at Hanoi on March 18, 2026 and will take he public transportation to head to Cat Ba. The initial plan is to stay at Cat Ba from March 18 to March 25 or 28, 2026 (depending on the groups' availability). We will be staying at vacation home. Of course, we will share
the cost. It's estimated at $20 CAD/p/n.
Everyone should have health insurance & a valid passport. Everyone
will arrange their own flight to get there. Cat Ba is famous for both sport and water soloing, with routes from
easy-moderate all the way to pumpy crimp-fests. You
can lead your own routes as well as top roping others.
