Get in touch with your inner monkey! If you are fit enough to bowl or go dancing, you can rock climb. And don't be afraid. Rock climbing is safe, fun, easy for beginners and very social.

There is a fiberglass rock climbing wall near the Ekkamai BTS station that anyone can use. It is on the grounds of the Bangkok Planetarium and Science Center complex on Sukhumvit between sois 40-42.

There is a sports complex (building 6) with an olympic size swimming pool and ashpalt soccer field. The climbing wall is outdoors along the service road beside the pool.

You can rent all the equipment you need for only 50 baht per person in the office beside the swimming pool.

However, you have to know what you are doing. The staff do not speak English. As far as I can tell, you have to make arrangements in advance if you need instruction or a guide, and pay more.

The wall is closed Monday. It seems to remain open as long as the sun is up.

Warning: You have to climb the scaffolding at the back to put up a top rope. Also, some of the footholds will twist when you are climbing. The wall sometimes feels like it is swaying when you are near the top, but I believe that it is secure. The staff assure me it is safe and children use it regularly.

I would like to go Thursday at 1:30 if anyone can join me. I can teach you everything. Male, female, old, young, doesn't matter, it's just for fun.
