Jungle Survival Course in Cuc Phuong National park (rain forest)

One of our jungle survival courses take place in a tropical rain forest Cuc Phuong National Park. This course combines jungle survival with trekking.

As far as picking wild edible plants go, we would not pick any plant that is uncommon or rare. Rare plants will be pointed out, but not eaten. In other words, we’d only sample plants that are very common and that are capable of growing back rapidly. Luckily for you, there are many plants that fall into this last category. You’ll get to eat directly from the jungle.

Many of these plants are actually commonly found in the regular markets of Vietnam.
