The base of the climb is easy to find, just walk towards and past Thailand wall head keep heading up the track. Solo'd the first approach part, pass one anchor and keep traversing right to another anchor. The next pitch (0) I found quite awkward, definitely requires a rope and goes to obvious belay ledge with a bolt and a thread. We arrived here at 11am and the next pitch was in the sun for several bolts. From here starts the 6a+ pitch. Head up for several bolts and then below a tufa the climb splits in two. Take the right line. Make your way up and ignore ratty anchor, keep going to an obvious anchor in a small cave. The cave is at the top of a tube system which has a handline going through it. For the start of the next pitch, climb up and left out of the cave clipping the first bolt and then follow the obvious line of blue slings up gently overhung jugs and pockets. Keep going right up to the cave. Didn't bother with the final easy pitch. Abseiled down on a single 60m rope. Make sure that you clip the draws to the rope when abseiling down the 6b+ so that you can reach the abseil station. Otherwise you will be hanging in space. Lovely climb, highly recommend. Chill for the grade.

I broadly agree with Anton's post from 2023. Find the guidebook vague and not terribly helpful.
When you arrive at the start of Candlestick wall (you'll see a little plaque on the rock indicating you are in the correct place) you will then need to do an easy grade 5 climb. We treated this as pitch -1 as decided not worth the risk falling. I guess is about 20 metres up to a very good anchor. After this traverse right without protection just using the fixed rope to an obvious anchor about 10 metres away to start pitch 0 which is an easy grade 5 out right. Pitch 1 6a finishing at very obvious ledge on left. Pitch 2 6b. I saw the anchor out left towards the top of this pitch and used it. Was awkward final move to it and realise in hindsight that it was the wrong anchor. Just stick with the obvious line and the anchor you want is exactly AT the opening of the vertical tunnel. This is a very enjoyable climb. Pitch 3 5 / scramble up through vertical tunnel. If I did this climb again I would skip this final pitch. I don't feel it adds anything to the experience and certainly the views / exposure from top of pitch 2 are excellent. Also the anchors at top of pitch 3 are not brilliant. One ratty old anchor made from a bunch of slings around a rock. The other anchor which we used is hope through 3 hangers. Probably fine but I would have been happier seeing carabiners in the hangers - not sure why this one was made this way. Back clip as you rappel back down pitch 2. We started climbing 11am and were in shade the whole way. |

Kept trying the crux and dog hanged couple of times. Awesome crux sequence if you stay left towards the anchor!
also was finding Thaiwand wall and free soloed the approach, ended up in this crag not knowing the difficulty of the routes and decided to yolo and hop on it. Gets more beautiful the higher we got. |

Best climb of my life (not the moves, overall experience). But... guidebook and description don't help much. My opinion:
Pitch -1, approach. Its a climbing grade 5 itself, with some slings and fixed ropes, so you might use rope as well. Especially going down. There is even an anchor. Pitch 0. From an obvious ledge with an anchor. 5+ grade climbing, 4 slings. Pitch 1. Straight up, but choose the right line. Red line variation is actually just couple meters to the left, easy to get confused. Pitch 2. Thats where it gets confusing. My ascent is "dirty" because i switched to The Red Line and back couple times. Also, couldn't see the anchor in the cave, so ended up at the left anchor. Pitch 3. Throught the cave. 2 sling and two old and not 100% reliable anchors, but okay to help you get down to pitch 2. Abseil from the top of Pitch 2 three times with one 60m rope. Dont forget to backclip at pitch 2. |

Started with an approach through the jungle and a scramble to the first belay station. Travese to the second pitch and a vertical climb there after. Most of the belay stations has shaded areas to rest. Do note the 3rd pitch at the bottom of the tunnel has no resting spot and you’ll probably be hanging off your harness. You will be rewarded with a panoramic view of the whole of Railay.
Rappel was done from the 4th pitch down to the first belay station with 2x 70m(any shorter i dont think it will be possible) ropes. You will have to backclip and perform some travese. Overall a great climb, will recommend if in the area. |
