FAQs: Rock Climbing in Thailand
What should I know about Rock Climbing Thailand?
Any trip to Thailand is sure to start with a flight into the international airport outside of Bangkok (BKK). From here domestic flights may be taken to the south and center of the country, where most of the rock climbing may be found. Buses are also an option from the capital.
The most popular rock climbing spots among foreign climbers here are Railay, Tonsai in Krabi. However, expand your horizons and try out any of Koh Phi Phi, Ao Nang, Koh Lao Liang, or even the Crazy Horse. These options are likely to be less crowded and give you a more authentic experience of Southeast Asian climbing culture.
Why should I choose Thailand for my Rock Climbing adventure?
Stunning scenery
From the white sandy beaches of the southern coast to the thick jungles of the country’s interior, there are plenty of pristine landscapes to explore in this beautiful Southeast Asian country. Take advantage of the sturdy limestone to summit a small massif and get some great views over this stunning landscape.
Beautiful beaches
Once you’ve finished a day of climbing, head out to the pristine beaches along Thailand’s southern coast. If you’re climbing at Railay, all you have to do is descend to enjoy the refreshing emerald-green sea water. If you’re up for even more adventure, surfing is a popular activity at many Thai beaches.
Come for the culture
When you’re not out on the rocks, enjoy some of Thailand’s unique and magnificent culture. The architecture here is quite spectacular with numerous palaces dotted throughout the country. Definitely take the chance to go to a cinema, which is a throwback to a time before the dominance of streaming. Also, get a bite to eat at a local restaurant and enjoy some excellent cuisine.
What can I expect from the weather in Thailand?
Winters in Thailand, which is located just above the equator, are cool in comparison to the summers and also, crucially for climbers, much drier. Average daily temperatures during the summer are around the mid to upper-20s.
How many days should I allocate for my Thailand Rock Climbing experience?
This depends on how much time you have and what you would like to do. Most guides offer single and half-day excursions, but there are options for longer, 4-day trips as well. Overall, a week should be plenty of time to sample a diverse array of climbing available here.

This was one of our favorite activities! Half day tour was the perfect amount of climbing for us (beginners). We had a super fun and helpful instructor, and the surroundings were so fascinating and beautiful. Would for sure recommend this if you enjoy adrenaline and a challenge!

We were a group of four with one guide (Pom) and had a really nice climbing experience. We felt very secure when Pom secured us by climbing. He always pushed us a to stay positive, gave us instructions how to overcome difficult spots. We climbed routes that we wouldn't have thought possible. This was quite motivating.
Rudy
I’ve never had any interest in rock climbing tbh but since I’ve stayed in Railay for few days I’ve decided to try and it was fun experience. The instructors where pushy when you needed it but not to much they provided clear instructions and advice and they were really fun to be around. I had great time highly recommended
Corey
Loved it! The guides were friendly, funny, and really encouraging. They were welcoming to total beginner climbers and offered a few challenges to climbers with more experience
Super fun! Truly funny guides, but in a non-pushy way. Amazing location and interesting climbs! We could go for a swim at the lovely Railay beach, too!
