Due to a small downpour around 1pm on Sunday, Hashers started arriving at our Hash Home at Nang Vung Tau slightly later than usual. As the rain had now passed, spirits were high as we geared up for an exciting adventure that promised breathtaking views and challenging trails. The picturesque location set the stage for an unforgettable experience.

We began the journey walking along the beachside Tran Phu, surrounded by charming Vietnamese streets adorned with colourful houses, restaurants, coffee shops and friendly locals. After a while we caught up with Secs who carefully guided us to a path on the right, Hem 42 to be exact.  The atmosphere was lively and vibrant, reflecting the unique blend of traditional and modern influences in Vung Tau.

Upon reaching the foot of the mountain, the ascent commenced, and the environment quickly transitioned into a lush, natural wonderland. The landscape was dominated by verdant foliage and towering trees that provided a refreshing shade. The harmonious sounds of chirping birds and rustling leaves served as a soothing backdrop to the energetic chatter of the hashers. The camaraderie among the participants was evident, as old friends caught up and new connections were forged.

After a brisk climb, we reached the Bồ Đề temple, a spiritual haven nestled amid the greenery. The pagoda's intricate architecture and tranquil ambiance provided a brief moment of respite, allowing the participants to soak in the serenity of the surroundings.

Moving forward, the group continued their ascent up Vi Ba, a vantage point known for its awe-inspiring views of the coastal city and the shimmering sea beyond. The sight was nothing short of breathtaking, and it fuelled the enthusiasm of the hashers to press on further.

We progressed further and shortly arrived at the challenging Waterfall Trail, where the hashers navigated through rugged terrain, rocky patches, and occasional muddy puddles. This portion of the run tested the participants' endurance and skills, making it an exhilarating segment of the journey.

As the group reached the end of the Waterfall Trail, a few hashers chose to take a shorter route back to Vi Ba, while others, emboldened by the adventure so far, decided to continue along the mountain ridge. This trail offered astonishing panoramic views of the surrounding Vung Tau landscape, rewarding those who braved the extra distance.

Following the ridge, the hashers eventually met the Powerlines, marking the beginning of their descent via the Golden Buddha. The rocky path was steep and challenging, but the thrill of conquering the trail together forged stronger bonds among the Hashers, many helping more exhausted participants. Laughter echoed through the air as the hashers shared tales of their escapades along the way.

Eventually we all arrived back on Vi Ba and after a rather challenging steep slippery path down, we all breathed a sigh of relief as we got back onto Le Ngoc Han, knowing the trail was just metres away from completion. 

Upon completing today’s trail and returning to our Hash Home, Hashers enjoyed the vast selection of water and soft drinks on ice, together with our favourite Saigon Chill beer. As if this wasn’t enough, we were treated to a five-course feast comprising of salt and pepper chicken, duck, clams in Thai soup, egg salad and fried rice. 

As the day drew to a close, Chom Chom carried out the circle to introduce the hares, virgins, returnees and even a sinner. A group photo was then taken and Hashers then relaxed further, sharing stories and laughs over yet more refreshments.

Once again, Run 1070 lived up to its reputation of providing a memorable and exhilarating experience for all participants, leaving them eagerly awaiting next Sunday's Hash adventure.

On On!
