The walls around the Pha Tam Kam camp run from 5a slabs to 8a roofs, 5–20 minutes away on foot: Tree Lounge suits beginners, Elephant and Hilton offer tufa and vertical faces, and The Roof is a fully horizontal cave with perma-draws. Two climbers died at Elephant in 2025 and 2026, both while cleaning anchors.
The walls on the far side of the Pha Tam Kam valley are 5–25 minutes from camp and offer longer, steeper routes: Open All Hours is shaded all day, Hangover and Partymeile are vertical faces with overhanging finishes, Burnout is stiff, and Worldtrip has 30 m tufas. There is also a four-pitch, 130 m multipitch called Chinese New Year.
Tha Falang is less than 2 km downstream from Green Climbers Home, a 20–30 minute walk, with 33 routes spread across Disneyland, Zombieland, Wonderland, Phantasialand and other sectors. The routes are longer and quieter than Pha Tam Kam's, and some sectors are overgrown; Caterpillar 7a and March Hare 7a+ are the only named routes publicly verifiable.
Thakhek is the centre of Lao climbing: the Pha Tam Kam crags surround Green Climbers Home, a 5–20 minute walk away. The smoothest route from Taipei is via Bangkok Don Mueang and Nakhon Phanom, then across the Third Friendship Bridge. The camp caps the 2026/27 season at 70 guests. There is no ambulance, and one climber died cleaning an anchor in 2025 and another in 2026.
