Dak Lak Province is the place to head to enjoy the scenic landscapes and rich variety of flora and fauna of Yok Don National Park, an extensive area of natural beauty.
The park shares borders with the Ea Bung, Chu M’Lanh, Ea Po and Krong Na communes and also has areas that come close to the eastern side of Cambodia. Covering such a large area, it is home to a large collection of flora and fauna, the majority of the former falling into the semi-evergreen and deciduous forest categories.
A trip to Yok Don National Park is an absolute must for lovers of the great outdoors and anyone appreciative of eye-catching plant and animal life. Besides organized trekking excursions in the park, elephant riding is among the most popular activities on offer.
Getting There & Away
Buon Ma Thuot Airport is the closest aviation facility to the park, with flights coming in here from Ho Chi Minh City’s international airport. From here it’s a 45-minute drive to the park headquarters. If you prefer to travel by road, there are buses into the Central Highlands from Ho Chi Minh City, with a change necessary in Buon Ma Thuot.
