Remote karst valley located at the footstep of the Northeast Mountain range, the Đông Bắc, 100km from Hanoi in rural and traditional area.
Most of the cliffs are located in private orchards. Be careful of crops, especially custard apple trees. Most landlords might ask for access fees, usually VND 20,000-25,000
About 2 hours from Hanoi by motorbike or private car. By public bus, about 4 hours: go to Gia Lam station to go to Lang Son. Get down at Yen Vuong to get a taxi to Yen Thinh commune. This requires Vietnamese communication skills as no one speaks English.
Mão's Homestay and Duc's bungalows, located from 1 to 5km from the crags, have been the main climbers' meeting point. They are community-based projects created and funded by VietClimb in 2018 and 2020.
All local access with orchards' owners, Commune, District and Province authorities arranged by VietClimb. Contact them to inquire about the latest updates and get a briefing.
Discovered, developed and bolted by VietClimb.
