Hi, I will be arriving in Seoul on the 16th May. Also looking for a partner. I mainly sport climb 6a / 6b and project 6c.
I'll be there a bit later in your trip, but I hope we can climb together. In the meantime let me know how the climbing goes there.

Hey there! Does anyone know if there is a guidebook for climbing in South Korea? Currently looking for more information around Seoul. Thanks!

There's a book called Climb. Google "climb rock climbing in korea guidebook pdf” . The first result should give you a free download of the book.

Good way to connect is using the Facebook Groups Climbing Hub Korea or Busan Climbers - with some luck Dong-il Ryou will reply - the "godfather" of Korean climbing and author of the book mentioned above - he's very eager to help and connect people typically - enjoy climbing in Korea, it is just amazing!

Thank you so much for the info! Found the guidebook, hoping to climb Insubong. One step closer!

Approximately 28th December, 2024. For 2-3weeks. I'm currently living in Tasmania, Australia.

Mikey Song That's gonna be mid winter mate. I believe that there will be some ice climbing in Korea.
Otherwise, I would think a south facing crag on a sunny day in the south, say near to Busan would be the way to go for rock.

Partner Wanted for South Korea
Hello! I'll be traveling through Korea in April-May, and I'm looking for partners to climb with. I mostly sport climb but would be down to boulder! My climbing grades are around v8 and 5.12c.
