Gray langurs often live in high forest areas on limestone mountains, do not live on mixed bamboo forests. You can meet them foraging in the bushes near the forest. Often sleep on standing limestone cliffs or on tall, windy canopy trees.

This animal is common in Yen Bai, Lai Chau, Ha Tay, Hoa Binh Vinh Phu and Thanh Hoa.
