Kiet Ngong Village lies within the enchanting natural scenery of the 2,400 km2 Xe Pian National Protected Area (Xe Pian NPA). This mainly Lao Loum (lowland Lao) community of approximately 150 households is located at the edge of the Kiet Ngong wetlands, one of the largest and least altered in the region, and at the foot of Phou Asa, a large rock outcrop renown for its intriguing ruins and superb views of the dense semi-evergreen forests below.

Kiet Ngong Village is the jump off point for nature walks, bird watching, trekking, elephant rides and day trips to the Wat Phu Asa temple archaeological site.
