The reserve and the village area are dominated by low mountains, which extend south-east from the Annamite Mountains and form the border between Quang Tri and Thua Thien Hue provinces. The highest points within the nature reserve are Coc Ton Bhai (1,408 m), Ca Cut (1,405 m), Ko Va La Dut (1,409 m), Coc Muen (1,298 m) and Co Pung (1,615 m).
