돌돌이 암벽교실/실내암벽장

It's above King mart, inside the M&F Sports Club, in a room off to the right when you enter the club. It's open when the club is: M-F 6-12, Sat 6-10.
I was offered a month free, then negotiable cost. I am guessing they're being friendly to foreigners, and maybe want to see how much you use the place?... [Read More]

Ace Climbing center

|
|
Basement Gym with cut out in the roof with some short lead or top rope problems. It has a cave in the center and most of the walls are overhung, but there is a "beginner" area. The people are nice and some of them speak a little english. I've seen everything from beginner lessons to a core of very strong regulars who justify the overhung conditions. There variety of training gear, from weights to fingerboards, though much of it is hung upside down or on inclines. It gets VERY hot in here in the summer months.... [Read More]

Old, small, friendly gym in the basement below a small climbing shop. There's a foreigner there, and if you're in the region, this is probably the place to be. Akdong has been around since 1991? and is the creative force behind the bulk of the climbs at Yongseo Falls.... [Read More]

Jin Tec speaks English, climbs hard, and is a great teacher.
Membership is 30 dollars per month.

It doesn't look like much from the outside-- easier to miss than to find, almost-- but it's a pretty nice place, with friendly people. It's long and narrow, with walls of varing steepness.
1 month is W60,000 (there are many membership options that bring down the price--see photo of options list). Once you join, you have access to the gym anytime.
Most weekends or at least Sunday they go to nearby outdoor climbing areas. They offer lessons in various climbing disciplines. Opened in 1999 by Pak Jeong-yong 010-4593-4339 (Korean)... [Read More]
