Warm Jacket: As the temperatures drop significantly in the evenings, especially in Dong Van and Meo Vac, pack a warm jacket or insulated coat.
Gloves and Beanie: For early morning or late evening rides, gloves and a beanie will keep your extremities warm.
Waterproof Gear: Autumn is mostly dry, but a light rain jacket or poncho is recommended just in case.
Sturdy, Waterproof Shoes: Comfortable for both riding and walking, especially if you plan to explore some of the more rugged landscapes.
Sunscreen and Lip Balm: The cool air can be deceiving—sun protection is still necessary.

Regardless of the season, there are a few items you should always pack for your Ha Giang Loop adventure.
Travel Essentials:
Passport and ID: Always carry your passport and any necessary identification.
Cash: ATMs are rare along the Loop, so bring enough cash for meals, fuel, and other expenses.
Basic Toiletries: Toothbrush, toothpaste, deodorant, wet wipes, and sunscreen are must-haves.
Power Bank: With long riding days, a power bank ensures your phone and other devices stay charged.
First Aid Kit: A small first aid kit with band-aids, antiseptic, painkillers, and personal medications.
Small Backpack: A 20-30 liter backpack is ideal for storing your essentials on the road.
If you need a small backpack, Jasmine Tours offers free backpack rentals to keep your belongings secure on the journey.
While it’s possible to bring a suitcase or large backpack, we recommend traveling light for your Ha Giang Loop adventure. Larger items can be securely stored at Jasmine Tours' facility free of charge. For the tour, a small backpack is more practical, as it can be securely attached to your motorbike and is much easier to manage.
If you don't have a small backpack, you can borrow one from Jasmine Tours at no extra cost. Traveling light allows for a smoother, more enjoyable experience on the road.
