Description

It's a short, steep climb up to the 278m-high (912ft) limestone outcrop that overlooks Krabi Town, but hikers who successfully tackle the 1260 stairs to the summit are rewarded with a access to Wat Tham Suea (Tiger Cave Temple) and some stellar views. The temple takes its name from the belief that tigers once dwelled in the surrounding caves. Unfortunately there are no prowling big cats here, instead golden stupas and a large seated Buddha silently keep watch over the emerald forest and sprawling blue sea below.
