Motivating atmosphere with routes at every angle for every ability and very friendly managers (Mr. Kim) and members to point out the routes to you. (I was really impressed with the routesetting!) 60평 of climbing space, including an "island" in the middle and "stalactites" from the ceiling. Not too crowded, but not empty and decent music on my visit.
Showers and changing rooms.

This gym was a GREAT find, and I say find because it took some looking to get to the front door. Once you get inside you get a feeling of cleanliness and organization. There are cubby holes and sandals provided as you are walking in. I don't speak Hongul unfortunately, but upon realizing this I was immediately directed to a staff member with a very accurate translation app, who obviously understood more English then he could speak. He effectively explained that the gym charges 20,000KOW per month and collects 3 months in advance. He happily agr... [Read More]

This is one of the biggest, nicest gyms in Seoul, and one of the few indoor gyms with vertical climbing. Many strong folks train here, including champion competition climbers.

Tower Palace Climbing Wall

Let's say you're living in Kangnam and don't want to mess with the rif-raf at the public walls. In the VANTT complex (2nd floor above Artisee Cafe) in the Tower Palace Complex there is a climbing wall. . .
The only? way to use it is to join the gym (at just over W2.1mil a year). . . though that gives you access to a great lounge, fitness club, pool, sauna. . . and the most professional, attentive and congenial staff anywhere (though limited English).
Interesting marked routes (a lot packed -into the relatively small space) and it seems we... [Read More]
