Green Climbers Home
A climbing camp in a karst valley east of Thakhek, with hundreds of sport routes, plus lessons, gear rental and accommodation.
Green Climbers Home is a well-known climbing camp about 15 km from the town center, near the start of the Thakhek Loop. It sits in a valley surrounded by limestone cliffs in Ban Kouanphavang village, with hundreds of sport routes from beginner to advanced, making it one of Southeast Asia's best-known climbing destinations. The camp offers half-day and full-day beginner courses, multi-pitch climbs and gear rental, as well as bamboo huts, tents and a restaurant. Even non-climbers often stop here overnight and meet backpackers from around the world. Tham Sa Pha In and Tham Xieng Liap, the loop's first-day sights, are nearby. The season runs from mid-October to May, and the camp closes in the rainy season. Book courses and beds on the website ahead of peak season.
