Tourism is no longer solely embodied in the concept of relaxation or discovery. A new travel trend is very popular, especially for those who prefer to be active. This is sports tourism. For those who love sports, nothing is more wonderful than combining sports training while traveling.

Currently, visiting a new city is not only a cultural experience, but also a combination of exploring nature, associated with activities such as climbing, jogging... In recent years, collective sports activities in Vietnam, such as marathons, trekking... have developed and taken place in famous tourist cities, thus becoming a new trend to attract a large number of tourists. If you haven't tried it yet, let's take a look at recent sports travel trends.

Marathon in Vietnam

Traveling in combination with marathon is a very popular form worldwide. Sometimes, a marathon is the reason many people come to a city. In Vietnam, many marathons still take place every year in major cities.

The Vietnam Mountain Marathon (VMM) is the largest mountain marathon in Vietnam and attracts thousands of national and international participants. Vietnam Mountain Marathon is so special because of its unique course in the majestic mountains of the Northwest.

Ha Long Heritage Marathon: Ha Long Bay has long been one of the most popular destinations in Vietnam. Join jogging in Ha Long Bay and combine it with visiting one of the natural wonders of the world. The competition course allows you to discover many beautiful places: the long coastline and the famous architectural works of Ha Long. In addition, the road also passes through fishing villages and coastal markets to help participants experience the life of local fishermen.

Mountain biking in Vietnam

Bicycle races are a great opportunity to explore. However, it is not necessary to be a professional athlete to participate in this sport, cycling can be for everyone. If you are interested in exploring, cycling on a mountain road or a coastal road is a great sports travel experience.

Instead of walking or taking a taxi, exploring a new city by bike is a fun way to exercise at the same time, as cycling is a good way to practice and protect the environment. On upcoming trips, try to avoid motorbikes or public transport and explore the city by bike. You will observe the city slowly and discover many interesting corners yourself.

Trekking in Vietnam

Trekking is a form of hiking, usually through the mountains to admire the magnificent scenery. Trekking has become popular in Vietnam in recent years and attracts a large number of participants. The most beautiful route for trekking in Vietnam is in the mountains of the Northwest.

By trekking, you can admire the magnificent mountain scenery, explore the homes and cultures of ethnic minorities. For trekking, participants must have good training before they can conquer difficult routes and must follow the guide's instructions as the terrain may be dangerous.

Kayaking in Ha Long Bay

If you have ever been to Ha Long Bay, you probably know kayaking. Kayaking is now increasingly popular in many other places, whether in lakes or caves. For adventurers, kayaking over rapids and waterfalls is a challenging and exciting experience. And for those who want to relax, they can also combine kayaking in the sea and lake to exercise gently and relax the mind. The boat floats gently on the smooth surface of the lake and you stroll quietly.

Kayaking requires rhythm, dexterity, and coordination. It also demands a high level of teamwork; if two people don't coordinate their paddling, the boat will just spin in circles. In addition to Ha Long Bay, you can kayak almost anywhere: Tuyen Lam Lake in Dalat, Ninh Binh,...

Sports tourism is a trend that interests many people, combining sightseeing with health training. You can choose sports according to your physical condition. We hope the suggestions above help you find new ideas for your upcoming holidays!
