About Thailand:

Rock, sun, sand, sea, cuisine, massages! ... Krabi has it all but there is more to rockclimbing in Thailand. Although still very much in its infancy, rockclimbing in the "Land of Smiles" is slowly spreading beyond Krabi to the Central and Northern regions. Limestone sport climbing is the predominant form in the areas that have been developed and there are huge opportunities for further developement. Come hit the North - South climbing trail and sample along the way all the exotic culture, cuisine, art, natural beauties, and adventures that Thailand has to offer. NOTE: Here are some betas on Thai words so that you can understand the info below better - Khao = hill/moutain, Khun = Mr./Mrs./Ms., Koh = Island, Ao = Bay, Haad = Beach.
