朝の霧がランビアン峰の周りを渦巻く中、東南アジア各地から集まった200人のアスリートがダラットで最も過酷な試練、ハイランドチャレンジシリーズに備えています。これはただの週末の楽しいランではなく、松林を抜け、山道を登り、澄んだ高原の湖を渡るマルチスポーツの試練です。
「このシリーズはダラットの自然の遊び場を紹介するために設計しました」と、元K'Hoガイドで冒険スポーツ起業家のレースディレクター、グエン・ヴァン・ドゥックは説明します。「参加者は夜明けにコーヒー農園をマウンテンバイクで走り、トゥエンラム湖をカヤックで渡り、観光客がほとんど見ない滝までトレイルランニングします。」
シリーズは3月から11月まで毎月開催され、それぞれのレースでサイクリング、ランニング、水泳、ナビゲーションの異なる組み合わせが特徴です。地元のK'Hoガイドが伝統的な森の道を案内し、薬草や持続可能な高原生活についての先住民の知識を共有します。
ダラットのレースが特別なのはコミュニティへの焦点です。「各チェックポイントには地元の食べ物があり、バインチャンヌオンのエネルギーストップやアーティチョークティーの水分補給ステーションがあります」と、4回完走したサイゴン在住の参加者サラ・チェンは笑います。「さらに、完走タイムよりも途中で集めるストーリーの方が大切です。」
次のイベントは、ダラットGAPの花農園を15kmマウンテンバイクで走り、セクンプル滝まで5kmのトレイルラン、そして伝統的なK'Hoの道案内技術を使ったチームナビゲーションチャレンジを組み合わせています。登録はdalat.appのイベントプラットフォームでのみ受付、過去の参加者が写真やトレーニングのコツを共有しています。
典型的な観光活動を超えた冒険を求める方にとって、これらのレースは本物の高原体験を提供し、地元コミュニティと持続可能な観光の支援にもつながります。
Da Lat's adventure racing scene has exploded into one of Southeast Asia's most unique multi-sport experiences. The Highland Challenge Series combines the region's dramatic elevation changes, pristine natural environments, and rich cultural heritage into unforgettable athletic adventures that attract participants from across Vietnam and beyond.
Adventure racing involves multi-discipline endurance events that combine various outdoor activities including trail running, mountain biking, kayaking, swimming, and navigation challenges. Da Lat's Highland Challenge Series takes advantage of the region's 1,500-meter elevation, diverse terrain, and year-round temperate climate to create courses that showcase the very best of Vietnam's mountain highlands.
Unlike traditional races that focus purely on speed, Da Lat's adventure races emphasize exploration, cultural immersion, and sustainable interaction with local K'Ho communities. Participants don't just race through the landscape – they experience it through indigenous eyes while supporting local conservation efforts.

Participants can offset their travel emissions through:
Da Lat's Highland Challenge Series offers races for all fitness levels, from 25km novice events to 80km championship challenges. Most participants should be able to hike 10km comfortably and have basic cycling skills. The elevation (1,500m) adds difficulty, so arrive 3-5 days early for acclimatization. First-time participants should start with shorter races and build up to longer challenges.
Registration opens 90 days before each race through the dalat.app platform. You'll need a medical clearance certificate and must complete an online skill assessment. Full refunds are available up to 30 days before the race, 50% refunds up to 14 days before, and no refunds within 14 days unless for medical emergencies with documentation.
Da Lat's races integrate authentic K'Ho indigenous culture, with traditional guides sharing forest knowledge and navigation techniques. Unlike pure competition events, these races emphasize cultural learning, environmental conservation, and community support. Checkpoint foods feature traditional highland dishes, and courses showcase areas most tourists never see while directly supporting local conservation efforts.
Mandatory gear includes trail running shoes, mountain bike, helmet, and basic safety equipment (provided GPS tracker, whistle, first aid). Da Lat has several quality rental shops for mountain bikes (300,000-500,000 VND/day) and specialized gear. Many international participants rent locally rather than shipping equipment. Complete gear lists are provided after registration.
Da Lat's temperate climate (15-25°C year-round) is ideal for adventure racing, but sudden weather changes are common. Races run in light rain, but are modified for heavy storms or lightning. The dry season (December-April) offers the most predictable conditions, while wet season races (May-November) add extra challenge with muddy trails and river crossings. All participants receive weather updates 48 hours before racing.
