Itinerary description

Along the Ho Chi Minh Highway most of the way; good road surface, very little traffic. Last 8km final uphill, then downhill into Dong Le not recorded due to flat battery. There is food to buy and also hotels at Quy Dat (65km) and at turnoff to Quy Dat (57km) but not much elsewhere so take a packed lunch!
