Access Issue: Access is sensitive in Kanchanaburi! Please behave accordingly to the guideline below. Details

The climbing development has graciously been granted by the local authority of Sai Yok District. Please remember you are a guest, and that your behavior can create impact for future climbing access in Thailand, positive or not. Be a good steward for the climbing community.

1) Be nice and respectful toward the locals (just like anywhere, a smile and a nod can go a long way).

2) Due to limited parking and relatively small size of the current crags, a visit in large groups is NOT recommended. Please maintain a low profile and consider leaving your music/boombox in the car.

3) There is no facility at any of the current crag. It is of utmost importance that every visitor practice LNT (Leave no trace). Pack out ALL of your trash and please do all of your bathroom business before arriving.

In case of emergency, make sure to relieve your self at least 30m from the crag. Dig a hole and bury your business or simply use a wag bag and pack it out.

4) No camping allowed. Please leave the climbing area by 6 pm. Many areas are considered community forest (ป่าชุมชน). Do not disturb or approach all wildlife. Do not climb a route if there’s a sign of nesting (bird, bees, etc).

5) While shopping at the nearest 7-11 is convenient, please consider supporting local businesses. (I.e. Hug Hill Cafe near Turtle Home Crag, various local restaurants in Sai Yok District)

6) A helmet is strongly advised, especially for the belayer. Loose rock is common for new climbing area.

7) Please report any sighting of loose rocks, dangerous hardware, or wildlife nesting on FB group or page such as “Let’s go climbing Thailand” or “Thailand Mountain Sport Club” (TMSC).

Description

A short 10 minute scooter from Kanchanaburi walking street, this roadside limestone crag is tucked back amongst rice paddies and contains pretty good featured lime stone with a lot more potential for routes. With sun in the mornings, this crag is great in the afternoon when it moves into the shade starting around 2 pm (possibly earlier when we were there in March). There is parking for 2 scooters across the street from the crag or by the "no dumping" sign in front of the start of the approach. I didn't see a good pull off for a car but am sure you could find one. Please make sure not to park in front of any farm roads or private property and maintain a low profile. Acess is a grey area but I suspect it's community forest. All interactions I had with the farmers and passerbyers nearby were positive but nonetheless. Approach is a short two minute hike straight up to the cliff. All routes are trad as of now and were established ground up. No fixed hardware of any sort so make sure to bring equipment to build your own anchor.

Getting There

14.007455,99.493527

Use GPS coordinates the location on the map is approximate .10 minutes scootering from Sud Chai bridge, cross south bound and head towards 3305, from there turn left right after the train tracks by the 7/11. continue for 3 minutes or so then take one more obvious right at which point you can start to see the cliff, continue on this for a couple minutes and arrive. If you reach Khao Poon camping you've gone too far, the crag is visble from there.
