Access Issue: Keeping climbs open depends on maintaining good relationships with locals and monks
Details
This climbing area is intertwined with monasteries and pagodas. It is critical for climbing in Myanmar to maintain these relationships through respectful conduct with the monks and the surrounding areas. Please be modest, respectful, friendly, and responsive to the wishes of the monks and local people. Do not climb on religious monuments, and remove shoes when crossing over established pagoda areas.
Description
This Wall is the imposing, overhanging, tufa streaked wall immediately to the right of Karaweik Wall, it is the first wall you pass when walking down the path to Karaweik. Although the routes tend to be a little dirty, the climbing style up the tufas is really good.
Getting There
When you arrive in the parking lot go past the main entrance to the monastery to another paved lane that leads to the left side of the monastery. Find a path that leads left around the monastery for about 100 meters and the cliff will be on your right. Big Fish is that big tufa-infested overhang.
