A Luoi -
Thua Thien Hue Province
Aluoi is situated near the Ashau Valley, and is
the site known as the infamous Hamburger Hill
battle during the Vietnam War. During this
weeklong battle in May 1969, 245 American
soldiers died. It is located on the inland road
between hue and the DMZ. The road to get there
used to be part of the Ho Chi Minh Trail and
extends up to the Dakrong Bridge. The scenery is
quite beautiful as the road runs parallel to the
Dakrong River and passes some primary jungle.
However this road is in terrible condition and
you would be pushed for time to see the sights
of the DMZ if you were taken to this road. It is
20 km to get to Aluoi from the Ashau Valley and
another 92 km to the Dakrong Bridge.
