2. Day waits for us with a great discovery trip out to the plain of jars. It is just to get used to the bikes or to the new climate as we are over 1000 meter above sea level. The plain of jars still remains a place of unknown history and diverse speculations. Why did people made these amazing stone formations and whet where they used for!???  ome off road biking can be done within a medium circuit (50-60 km).     Another night in Hotel       B-D   

3. Day is our start day into the biking adventure and our private discovery trip.
