The highlight of the Summer Cam Mountain tour is Thanh Long stream.

With a height of over 250m and a length of 4.25km, Thanh Long stream is recognized as the longest stream in An Giang province. In the dry season (from December to April of the following year), the stream sometimes dries up to the bottom, but when the rainy season comes, the cool, blue water rushes down from the crevices and cliffs, creating a majestic scene that attracts tourists.

There are many ways for tourists to conquer Thanh Long stream. Elderly people and children can hire local motorbike taxis. Young tourists can ride motorbikes to experience the curves and narrow slopes on the way down to the stream or go trekking.

According to An Giang newspaper, on Cam Mountain there are famous streams such as: Thanh Long, O Tuk Sa, Thuy Liem... Thanh Long stream originates from streams and Thanh Long lake, with a capacity of about 255,000m3. Thuy Liem stream originates from Thuy Liem lake located on the top of the mountain, with a capacity of nearly ^300,000m3 .

"Coming to Thanh Long stream, visitors will feel the peace, be close to nature, and have fun with friends and family. On weekday mornings, there are not too many visitors, so this is also an ideal place for photography enthusiasts to hunt for photos," said Viet Anh.

During the Cam Mountain tour this season, visitors cannot miss the experience of cloud hunting in the early morning. Even at many times of the day, after each rain, clouds come rushing in, covering the mountains and forests, creating a magical, poetic scene.

According to the tourism development plan of An Giang province, Cam Mountain is oriented to become a pilgrimage, resort and eco-tourism area to bring visitors new, attractive and interesting experiences.
