30 Great Roads in Vietnam
30 of the Best Roads for Motorbiking in Vietnam
Vietnam offers some of the best motorbike roads in Southeast Asia. After riding more than 250,000 km across the country over the past 15 years, I still discover new roads that surprise and inspire me.
Every journey has introduced breathtaking scenery, welcoming local communities, delicious regional food, and unforgettable riding experiences.
Based on those adventures, I have selected 30 of the best roads in Vietnam for motorbiking. Each route combines beautiful landscapes with enjoyable riding conditions, making them ideal for both experienced riders and adventurous travelers.
How These Roads Were Selected
Every road on this list meets several important criteria:
- Smooth, fully paved surfaces
- Good road conditions
- Beautiful mountain or coastal scenery
- Plenty of curves, climbs, and descents
- Light traffic
- Comfortable road width for motorbikes
As a result, each route offers an enjoyable and relatively safe riding experience.
Of course, no rider can honestly claim to have explored every road in Vietnam. I certainly cannot. However, after thousands of hours on the road, these routes remain some of the most memorable I have ever ridden.

However, foreign riders are frequently stopped at a well-known police checkpoint along DT716. Fortunately, many experienced riders avoid it by using a nearby back road.

From Thạnh Mỹ, the road climbs through a series of sweeping mountain passes before reaching Prao and A Lưới. Thick tropical forests blanket the surrounding mountains, providing habitat for rare wildlife such as the endangered Saola.
Even better, traffic is incredibly light. On some sections, it’s possible to ride more than 100km without seeing another vehicle. As the road follows broad river valleys, the pavement becomes wide and smooth, creating one of Vietnam’s most enjoyable long-distance rides.
