Detailed afternoon itinerary: From downhill racing to golden sunset coffee

Spanning an active 4.5-hour timeframe from 12:30 PM to 17:00 PM, this itinerary takes travelers along the winding curves of Ta Nung Pass, connecting high-speed outdoor entertainment with pastoral photography.

Stop 1 (13:15 – 14:15): Dalat Flower Highland & real-life Mario Kart racing

Departing central Da Lat, the vehicle winds southwest down the forested bends of Ta Nung Pass to Dalat Flower Highland. Nestled amidst pristine pine canopies, this expansive hillside park is home to a revered thousand-year-old ancient evergreen pine tree and sprawling flower terraces. The premier highlight here is Vietnam’s first Greenline gravity luge track—affectionately dubbed “Real-Life Mario Kart”. Stepping into colorful non-motorized three-wheeled karts and donning safety helmets, racers push forward on handlebar brakes to navigate steep downhill bends, hairpin curves, and straightaways carved directly into the hillside forest. Controlling your own descent speed, the rush of cool highland wind and the thrill of friendly competition create pure exhilaration for riders of all ages.

Stop 2 (14:30 – 15:45): Mongo Land — A pastoral nomadic paradise

A short 10-minute drive leads into Mongo Land, an extraordinary pastoral park that recreates the windswept romance of the Mongolian steppes in the heart of the Vietnamese highlands. Framed by rolling green hills and wide mountain horizons, the grounds are dotted with authentic round canvas yurt tents, traditional wooden windmills, and rustic farm fences. Guests can pet and feed friendly domesticated animals, including fluffy alpacas, miniature goats, spotted deer, and long-eared rabbits.

Thrill-seekers will head straight for the Rainbow Slide—the longest multi-colored dry tube slide in Da Lat. Sitting securely inside an inflated circular tube, riders shoot down slick rainbow-hued tracks with sweeping curves and gentle dips, accompanied by infectious laughter and postcard-perfect mountain backdrops.

Stop 3 (16:00 – 16:45): Me Linh Coffee Garden & sunset valley vistas

Perched high on a ridge overlooking Cam Ly reservoir, Me Linh Coffee Garden provides the perfect tranquil finish to your active afternoon. Visitors can walk along elevated wooden walkways winding through dense groves of Arabica, Robusta, and Moka coffee trees, observing the complete journey of coffee cherries from harvest to sun-drying on woven bamboo trays. Learn the fascinating biological processing behind authentic civet (weasel) coffee, and take a seat on wide open-air timber balconies. Sipping a steaming cup of freshly brewed highland coffee while watching late afternoon sunlight cast golden shadows across rolling plantation valleys is an quintessential Da Lat experience. Travelers passionate about modern specialty coffee craft can also visit La Viet Cafe Da Lat in downtown for artisan pour-over tastings.
