1. Rock-Climbing Course
Rock-climbing has recently been shown to be excellent for both physical & mental health. Krabi's karst formations are globally renown for some of the best rock-climbing. Either as a beginner, or an experienced climber, our rock-climbing trainer, Yhu at On the Rocks, has 0ver 20 years experience in the different bolt routes here.
"BBC reports indicate that rock climbing is increasingly used to improve mental health, acting as a "meditative" practice that boosts confidence, reduces stress, and fosters mindfulness by forcing, focusing, and combating depression through intense concentration. It is considered an effective mind-body workout that releases dopamine and serotonin".
