Climbing
at Pranang Peninsula
 In
recent years the sheer limestone faces and overhangs of Krabi's
spectacular cliffs has earned the area a reputation as one
of the premier rock-climbing sites in the world. Every year
literally thousands of climbers come to Krabi specifically
to challenge themselves on the famous limestone karsts, and
most will agree that it was well worth the trip. There are
over 150 challenging pegged routes, concentrated primarily
on the Pranang peninsula, between Hat Tham Pranang and East
Hat Lei Rai. These routes are typically in the mid to high
difficulty range, with numerous overhangs, and sheer limestone
faces. However, there are also several beginner climbs, so
that even the novice climber can experience the thrill of
climbing. Equipment rentals, instruction, and guides are all
available at nearly every restaurant, bar, and guesthouse
in the area, and for an extremely reasonable price.
