A remote waterfall and natural swimming hole deep in the Ba Na-Nui Chua Nature Reserve, about 40 km west of Da Nang. Giếng Trời (Heaven's Well) is reached by a 7-10 km jungle trek on unmarked terrain, with river crossings and dense forest. The destination — a large natural pool at the base of a waterfall — is worth the effort for experienced trekkers. Go with a local guide; the route is not suitable for independent navigation. Wear footwear that handles wet rock and expect to get wet.
