The Nui Doi Semi-wild Animal Area, which is some five kilometres from the centre of Phong Nha-Ke Bang tourist site, covers 20 hectares in Phong Nha Village, Son Trach Commune, Bo Trach District.

The area was set up in 2007 in order to help animals regain their natural instincts before being released into the wild. It is also aimed to be the place for scientific research and environmental education about wild animal preservation, particularly endangered rare species.

Through the environmental experience and interpretation service, visitors will be provided basic information about animal care. They will be also be instructed how to provide a good environment for animals prior to them being freed into the wild. 

Visitors will also have a chance to know about 20 rare Ha Tinh langurs which are among the most endangered species in Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park.
