Can you ride a scooter to Yang Bay waterfall from Nha Trang, and what type of scooter is best for long rides?

The road to Yang Bay waterfall is manageable solo on a scooter, there's nothing particularly tricky about the route.

For long-distance rides (200+ km a day through mountain roads), a small 50cc scooter or an old worn-out bike isn't reliable — breakdown risk is high even if you carry basic tools and can do minor repairs yourself.

Skip the cheapest scooter for purchase and instead rent a newer, well-maintained one — it makes long-distance trips much less stressful.

For long rides through Vietnam's mountains, a 125cc+ scooter is much more comfortable — some travelers cover 200+ km a day on one, though that pace isn't for everyone.
