Krabi province on the west coast of Southern Thailand is home to some of the world’s most spectacular coastlines featuring a karst landscape with craggy limestone hills, jagged cliffs, steep vertical sided limestone pillars and rock faces and oddly-shaped rock formations overlooking the emerald waters of the Andaman Sea.
With Krabi offering some 600 rock-climbing routes, this present numerous challenges for individuals of various levels of skills and experience. The towering cliffs of Railay Beach and Ton Sai Beach attract rock climbers from all over the world and have steadily gained fame as one of the premier rock-climbing destinations.
In addition to its natural beauty, Krabi also offers an excellent service infrastructure thereby making it a popular destination for island, beach and adventure holidays.
The province will be hosting the 2010 Krabi Rock and Fire International Contest during April 16 – 18. The competition features three contest categories consisting of the Lead Climbing Marathon, Speed Climbing and Deep Water Soloing. There will also be a Fire Contest.
