There are over 2000 mystical limestone cliffs in the Ha Long Bay, Vietnam area. Many rise from the water and others remain tucked away inland. The Karst limestone of the region came about by a unique process of erosion over thousands of years creating rock formations unlike anywhere in the world.
Our friends Josh and Brett Lowell from Big Up Productions shot an amazing Deep Water Soloing rock climbing video here in Ha Long Bay, Vietnam depicting powerhouses Klem Loskot and Tim Emmett discovering the endless amounts of Vietnam rock climbing potential. Ever since, there has been a rising awareness and interest in rock climbing in Vietnam and Ha Long Bay. Come visit us at our climbing shop on Cat Ba Island, grab a guidebook, and grab hold of the limestone!
