Da Nang to Lang Co: Is This the Best Road in the World? (2026 Guide)

Jeremy Clarkson called it "one of the best coastal roads in the world," but for those of us living in Da Nang, it's just our backyard. Today, we’re taking the scooter up the legendary Hai Van Pass, stopping at the historic Hai Van Gate, and dropping down into the turquoise waters of Lang Co Bay. As a US Air Force Veteran, I appreciate the tactical significance of this pass. Standing at the summit (496m), you can see why this was the "Sea Cloud Gate" for centuries. We’re navigating the hairpins, checking out the old war bunkers, and finishing with a cold drink overlooking the oyster farms of Lang Co. In this operation: The Climb: Navigating the famous "U-turn" curves and avoiding the oil trucks! Hai Van Gate: A look at the 19th-century gate and the bullet-scarred bunkers from the Vietnam War. The Descent: The most beautiful 15 minutes of riding you’ll ever experience as we drop into Hue province. Lang Co Bay: A quick tour of the "Bay of Bliss" and the best spots for a seafood break. 📍 Start: Da Nang City (approx. 30 mins to the base). 🛵 Bike Choice: A semi-auto or manual is best for the engine braking on the way down, but a 125cc scooter does the job! ⚠️ Pro-Tip: Check the weather! If the "Pass of Clouds" actually has clouds, visibility drops to zero in seconds. ☕ Coffee Stop: The "Salt Coffee" at the summit shacks is a must-try. I’m a US Air Force Veteran and expat living in Da Nang, Vietnam. On this channel, I share "boots-on-the-ground" guides for veterans, hidden gems for travelers, and my life in this coastal paradise. Would you ride the pass yourself, or take the train through the mountain?
