The sky well, hidden in the primeval forest west of Da Nang city, is located in Hoa Ninh Commune, Hoa Vang District. To get there, from the parking lot of Ba Na Hills Complex, you have to cross the hill about 10 km with steep slopes. The gravel and rocky path will lead you to a green lake in the middle of the mountain.
Many people choose trekking because it is easier and safer. The sky well attracts travelers by its pristine scenery of nature and the fresh and cool air. Spring bathing and fishing are among the popular relaxation activities there.
The ideal time to visit the sky well is from June to September when it is less rainy, and the road is not too slippery, limiting risks.

In the rainy season, you can explore the lake with friends by boat. In particular, in the summer, the lake dries up, turning into a “Mongolian grassland”, which is an ideal check-in spot for young people. Occasionally, visitors, when riding motorbikes or walking in the lake, will encounter herds of buffaloes and cows grazing pleasantly.
