Lonely Planet review for Ta Phin Village
Another popular hike is to Ta Phin village, home to Red Dzao and about 10km from Sapa. Most people take a xe om to a starting point about 8km from Sapa, and then make a 14km loop through the area, passing through Black H’mong and Red Dzao villages.

Very hard trail to this Red Zao minority
danny_sapa recommends this,
It is quite suitable for thoses who want ...burn their energy, al most 4 hours trekking up and down high hills through beautifull moutainous landscape, amazing scenery along the trail. Visit the Black Mong & Red Zao ethnic minority of Ta Phin. Experience their daily life and learn about the differences between their cultures. Enjoy spectacular view over rice fields to understand the process of rice making.... and 01 special thing about the villagers :They are really Experts at finding Herbs for bathing to improve their helth, It is very common that when the villagers have some ills, Just after 01 herbs bathing in PerMu wooden big barrel , Then you gonna be Ok then, no more ill. and the other good things for me as allways, I will trek to the villages for couples of days to have my weight control.
I am happy to provide you my guiding to this great place, the cost is 20 usd/ pax. more than 3 pax is 18 usd, including lunchs, entrance fee, cutural explaination, car or taxi bike to drive back to Sapa Town, as you can't walk all the way back cause it is too late and too dark at night, no Light on the trails at all
