Within just 2.5 hours of Bangkok, there are over 300 routes spread across 7 distinct crags. It may not sound like much compared to areas with thousands of climbs, but the region has grown steadily over the past several years. Despite our limited resources, I can confidently say there are truly some exceptional lines here rivaling classics in other popular destinations like Krabi or Kalymnos.
For this list, I spent quite a bit of time narrowing down the top 5 at each grade. I tried to look beyond just personal preference. It’s not just my favorite routes—these climbs either represent high-quality rock climbing or offer something unique in movement, style, or features that set them apart. I’ve also made an effort to include climbs from different crags—not just the most popular walls—so the list better represents the diversity of climbing in Central Thailand.
To keep things simple, I’ve grouped the grades into the following categories:
6A/+, 6B/+, 6C/+, 7A/+, 7B/+, 7C/+
