Explore the wild trail to hidden Crocodile Lake (Bau Sau) in Nam Cat Tien National Park
Crocodile Lake (Bau Sau), nestled deep into Nam Cat Tien National Park, the UNESCO-recognised world biosphere reserve, is the biggest one in the lagoon system with its 2,500ha area of water in the rainy season. The lake got that name as it was once home to crowds of fresh water Siamese crocodiles. Crocodile Lake is only accessible by a 10km pick-up truck ride and then a 5km hike, which is a great place to explore Nam Cat Tien's further wilderness, wetlands scenery, and biodiversity. This hiking trail to the lake will pass an enormous Tung tree and gives you the good chance to see the primates and plenty of opportunities to see the wide variety of birds, reptiles and other jungle life including primates.
