Ngoc Linh, Mountain summit in Central Vietnam

Located in the Annamite Range, Ngoc Linh reaches an elevation of 2,598 meters, making it the highest peak in southern Vietnam.

The mountain's name originates from Sino-Vietnamese language elements, with its title translating to Jade Mountain in English.

The Jeh-Tariang people refer to the mountain as Ngơl k'iàng, meaning the great mountain in their native language.

The steep trails to reach Ngoc Linh summit require strong physical preparation and consideration of weather patterns before attempting the climb.

The mountain supports the growth of Panax vietnamensis, a specific ginseng variety identified as a distinct species in 1973.
