TL;DR
You can ride a scooter from Nha Trang on mountain roads, but winding roads are tiring and can trigger motion sickness. A 50 cc bike struggles on steep climbs, and riding without a valid license can create serious legal problems even if the crash was not your fault.
What the community said
If you are riding solo, you can generally reach most places from Nha Trang by scooter, but a small bike loses power on steep climbs. A 50 cc scooter is usually underpowered for mountain sections.

Even if a crash was not your fault, riding without a valid license can seriously complicate the case. In a major accident, especially with injuries or a fatality, the fact that you were unlicensed becomes a key issue.

Winding mountain roads near Nha Trang can be tough if you get motion sickness: the ride is tiring, especially on long twisty sections. If you do not handle that well, it is better to choose another form of transport.
