Tonsai and Railay

North of Ao Nang there is a number of hardly explored and pristine climbing locations for those who are looking for a more off the beaten path experience. In this area, much of the climbing is on limestone rock.

Phuket & Phang Nga

Directly north of Phuket and an easy trip from the crowded beaches lies the much quieter province of Phang Nga. This province is known for its impressive and beautiful limestone mountains. Climbing here often reveals some breath taking scenery. There are many crags and cliffs still hardly explored, since not many climbers go here.

The mainland as well as Koh Yao Noi offer a large number of routes, both for beginners and experienced climbers. Koh Lao Liang and Koh Yao Noi (Koh is island in Thai) have a number of difficult routes more suitable for experienced climbers.
