Bach Ma National Park was established as a protected area in 1962, with its official designation as a national park occurring in 1991. The park's forests were heavily impacted by the use of Agent Orange during the Vietnam War, leading to significant ecological changes.

Despite these challenges, the park has become a vital conservation area, supporting a wide range of flora and fauna. Efforts to restore the ecosystem continue, making it an important site for both environmental education and ecotourism.
