Developed by Oxalis Company at Cat Tien National Park, the tour is a four-day, three-night program limited to a maximum of four guests per group. Participants travel with rangers through more than 3,200 hectares of forest, learning to identify animal tracks, check for potential trap locations, and use cameras to monitor wildlife. They also spend one night sleeping in hammocks at a forest campsite.
The winners are scheduled to be announced at an awards ceremony in London on November 2. Projects are evaluated based on their contributions to the destination, with a focus on environmental factors, community impact, and sustainable tourism development.
