South Thailand. Training rockclimbing program of MCS AlexClimb in South Thailand
Climbing came to Thailand three decades ago, first as an exotic and fashionable kind of sport from Europe. The local population of Thailand has adopted a novelty with their Buddhist equanimity - there was something very philosophic in the vertical evolution of the strangers, who meter by meter were making their way to heaven by impregnable orange rocks. Quite quickly rockclimbing has found in Thailand its followers - the first climbing gym in Bangkok was built in less than 10 years after French climbers found and equipped (only for themselves) several routes on the coast of the Bay of Biscay, in the unknown Thai backwater - Krabi . But time does not stand still, and rockclimbing in Thailand stepped ahead confidently and irrevocably - not even as a new sport, but more as the tourism and active vacation industry. An example of the development of the Thai rockclimbing cluster in Krabi - it is the world's first precedent of the effective integration of rockclimbing in the local tourist infrastructure. After that - came Kalymnos, Mallorca, Montserrat ... But the story of rockclimbing in Thailand - it is vivid and unique example in its own way of how within two decades, a new and unknown sport acquires massive popularity and becomes an effective source of income for the local population.
Today, no one will be surprised about rockclimbing in South Thailand - not that is a popular destination of tourism and leisure, with a huge audience, a large selection of climbing areas, sectors and the rockclimbing routes of any complexity. Rockclimbing in South Thailand - sport, in which, along with the foreign visitors, the locals are involved very actively and they surely reach in climbing rocks some very good results. In Thailand, there is the Rockclimbing Federation and the Rockclimbing Development Committee under the Ministry of Tourism and Sports.
Our rockclimbing program in South Thailand - it is undoubtedly the classic of the genre, a program that was developed about 12 years ago, long before about climbing in Thailand became known to everybody in Europe. The "Rock climbing in South Thailand (Krabi)" is we organize in the peninsula Phra Nang, there are many convenient flights from Europe and Asia to the Phuket International Airport.

Our Principles
AlexClimb Rule #1 - Safety First
From the very beginning of our activity, here nearly 16 years, the first Principle of work of School of mountaineering and rock-climbing of MCS AlexClimb is the Safety Priority. On the basis of this Principle all process of training is based, all programs and rounds are developed and carried out only within this main principle. We consider that at professional approach to development of programs, at personal discipline and correctly put motivation - occupations by mountaineering and rock-climbing are COMPLETELY safe. And from the return - all troubles and accidents in our sport come from nonprofessionalism, from ignorance or neglect by elementary standards of safety, from irrational motivation, from revaluation of own forces and opportunities. All these prerequisites we COMPLETELY EXCLUDE in our work - ours Rock-climbing, Ice climbing and Mountaineering are based on one Principle - the Safety Priority. In rock-climbing, mountaineering and ice climbing, the Priority of Safety of MCS AlexClimb-is your personal security and comfort irrespective of, than we are engaged - we train muscles and we work technology of the movement in the sports hall and on the rock climbing wall, we make the way through snowstorm to top or we relax on golden sand of the Caribbean beach after hot day of trainings on rocks. The Safety priority - the main credo of School of mountaineering and rock-climbing of MCS AlexClimb.
AlexClimb Rule #2 - Leave No Trace
Closely interacting with Nature, working with the active programs in mountains, woods, lakes and rivers, we perfectly understand the importance of carefull and respectfull bahavior towards the Nature, for its resources. From the very beginning of our outdoor-activity we adopted rules of Leave No Trace technique - the standard of behavior of the person accepted in all the civilized world in relation to environment and especially - to the wild nature. After all on the relation of people to the nature near which they exist, itself can draw dalekoidushchy conclusions on the relation of these people to... Where and as we didn't travel - we don't reserve any garbage, we try to reduce whenever possible our influence on environment to a minimum. We clear earlier zagryazyonny tourist parking of the left garbage, we take out and we take out to utilization places that to us other people left there. We consider that only thus, at personal individual consciousness of each citizen, each tourist, climber or autotraveller, we will be able to keep the nature surrounding us in its state, natural, suitable for life, - in it pledge of the healthy future for ourselves and our children.
