there is some climbing in cambodia. its mainly trad, but some sport north of phnom penh. the best website to goto is www.rockclimbingincambodia.com. You can get a book from them which i suggest if you are planning on going. The best areas are probably kampot down south. The problem with cambodia is that not all areas have been cleared of mines (especially up north), and so you shouldn't try to access any areas that have not been confirmed as climbing sites by the book I mentioned above. A lot of Cambodians are still stepping on mines left from the Khmer Rouge days and Vietnam War days with tragic consequences. But, otherwise, its okay climbing. Bouldering is pretty limited, but there are some small and easy boulders in sihanoukville (south of cambo) and there is another location I think just north of PP. There is also a bouldering wall at the olympic stadium in PP. It isn't all that good, but the kids over there love to watch you. Hope this helps, if you need any more info, let me know. |
