Hey everyone, I’m in HK until the 7th and I’m looking for some friends to boulder with. I’m free almost every day until I leave.
It would be cool to go boulder in shek-o or tai koo.

I have a crash pad and have sent V3 outside/v4-5 indoors.

Please text me at: (+852) 56016966

Regards,
Alex

I will be in town to visit family from Jan 5 to Jan 11. I am interested in checking out the climbing in Hong Kong such as the Lion Rock or places with good view. I would only have my sport rack with me but wouldn’t mind leading trad. I have onsighted up to 11- in Tahoe and Sierras. Please let me know if you are interested in roping up.

Hi everybody, I just moved (back) to Hong Kong recently and am looking for some climbing buddies! A little bit about me, I have been climbing for a few years and usually boulder indoors given I was in the Netherlands for a few years. I have experience sport climbing and bouldering outdoors and have done a few multi-pitches. I will be picking up two crash pads the coming week and will be bouldering around chung hom kok regularly, feel free to contact me if you want to join! If any one is also looking for climbing partners or has room… Read more »

Andrea

Hey, I’m also looking to do some outdoor climbing and bouldering if you’re still looking for climbing buddies. I’m here past the new year and would love to check out some crags. Do you have a number I can contact you on?

Gerrit VS

Hi all, I live in the area and I’m looking for a regular climbing partner. I don’t have ropes and such yet but I’m keen to jump in and start buying the essentials. Cheers!

Gerrit VS

Just want to add that I’ve been climbing indoor for a few years now and should be able to handle a reasonable difficulty level.

Simon

Hi Gerrit, I haven’t done much climbing in recent years but looking to pick it up again; I have all the gear. If that’s of interest drop me a whatsapp on 5598 1186, thanks, Simon

Gerrit van Sittert

I’ll be in touch!

Jan

Hi Gerrit
Which area do you live in in HK? I’m based in SK but would be happy to have you join in when we go climbing.

firingpotential

Hi Jan, thank you! I am in Shenzhen actually so I just hop over quickly to climb.

Gerrit VS

You can leave me a message on WhatsApp whenever: +1 (778) 877-1530

Gerrit VS

The “firingpotential” user above is me it’s just from an old account

Andrea

Hi Jan, I was wondering if you climb anywhere near SK? I’m staying in clearwater bay and looking for places/buddies nearby to climb with if you don’t mind an extra person tagging along.

Jan

The closest established site is really Beacon Hill, but Tung Lung Chau is not far from CWB. I have done some exploring of the small islands around Sai Kung and there are a few spots but nothing established. Waterfall rock looks cool but I’m still a trad noob and haven’t had a chance to go out there yet. We’ll probably go climbing during the Christmas week, still working this week, I’ll keep you posted.

Jan

Andrea
You’re welcome to rtag along tomorrow if you’re free. Whatsapp me 64036223.

Khemtip

Hello – My friend and I are traveling to Hong Kong during the weekend of 6-7 July 2019. We’re looking to hire a local guide for a day to climb at Cape Collision or Tung Lung Chau. We are sports climbers from Thailand with 1 year-ish top-rope experiences, and 3-4 months lead climbing (mostly indoor, grade 5b-6a).

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Please let us know if anybody would be interested in climbing with us!

Thanks,
Khem & Pat

Darren McGaughay

Hi everyone, I’ve just moved to Hong Kong from London to teach, and i’m looking for outdoor bouldering partners. A little bit about me, have been climbing for a few years now, and usually boulder or sport climb indoors. I do have some experience climbing both sport and bouldering outdoors (so comfortable lead belaying/spotting), but very much at that “awkward” transition stage from climbing indoors to outdoors! I’m looking to spend the next few months bouldering on real rock to build up some strength/skills before getting on sports routes. I’ll be picking up a crash pad this week so will… Read more »

Hi all,
me and my girlfriend will be in HK from July 1st. to July 5th. We would love to do some sport climbing for a day at the central crag, but we only have harnesses and shoes. Maybe someone (in the best case with equipment) would like to join us?! We feel safe to lead climb up to a 6a. Lunch and beers are on us 🙂

Or can someone suggest a place to rent the equipment for a day?! We would also borrow stuff from someone privately for some bugs.

Looking forward to hear from you

Anybody fancies some bolt clipping on some easy routes (F5, 6a) during the week or weekends, get in touch? I’m in Hong Kong until 21 March, 2018. I’m quite experienced and used to climb a lot of harder. Having recently contracted this weird condition called frozen shoulder and acquired a new baby, I haven’t climbed as much. I do have enough quickdraws, rope for sport routes but haven’t got my monster trad rack with me. Left it at home in the UK. Far too heavy! I have climbed in various places in Hong Kong before: Beacon Hill,Kowloon Peak, Lion Rock,… Read more »

Mr. Smith

I could be interested ! See my request for help above.

Daniel B.

Hi Kin, I’ll be passing through Hong Kong this upcoming weekend (10-11 March), I’ve never climbed in Hong Kong and would love to check the rocks you have there. Anything in the 6’s sounds good to me, and if your up for some trad let me know and I could bring a small rack.
Let me know if your available.

Aljoscha

Hi everybody,
I’ll visite HK from Feb. 7th to 17th and I would like to do some (outdoor) climbing. I’m originally from Berlin, coming to HK for the first time with my girlfriend (who unfortunately isn’t climbing). For Berlin hasn’t many rocks, I mostly climb Indoors where I can lead a 6b /5.10c. Outdoors I have some sportclimbing experience, no multy pitch experience though. I’d be up for pretty much any climbing and I could bring a 60m rope and quickdraws.
I’m ready for any kind of climbing action and be happy if anybody gets in touch!

Allen

Hi Tom, I will be traveling to HK from the US from December 5-11. I would love to get some climbing in while I’m there, unfortunately I won’t have a rope with me though. Any chance you have a crash pad and would be interested in going to Tsuen Wan boulders?

Lisa

Hi Allen (and Tom),
I’m around for some outdoor bouldering, but I’d need to get a crash pad. Let me know if you’re still interested and when.
Or alternatively, I’m free during the week to go to Vermcity in North Point or Gonature in Kwun Tong.
Lisa

Tom Ward

Hi Allen and Lisa. Bouldering sounds good! I haven’t got a crash pad, but how about Tsuen Wan boulders on Thursday or Friday this week? My whatspp is +447840017503

Lisa

Hi Tom,
I’d love to, but I work during the day. I can do the evenings indoors. Or weekends outdoors (if I can find a place to hire a mat from).
Sorry, I should have made that clearer in previous message.
Otherwise, I’m free the week beginning 18th December, daytime included.
Lisa

Jan

Lisa and all, I’d love to meet up as well, after Dec 24 if you’re free!

Thanks,

Hi Jan,
I’d love to but I’m away 22 Dec – 7 Jan. Are you still around after that time?

Kin Choi

Hi Tom, If you’re still around in Hong Kong, I wouldn’t mind doing a few routes outside. I have climbed for many years and have done fair a few crags in Hong Kong before. Having a shoulder problem (restricted range of movement on my left shoulder) recently, I don’t mind going easy. I’m in Hong Kong until 21 March, 2018. Give me a shout if you fancy a route or two.

Daniel Cheung

Hey, I’m here in HK for two weeks based around the TKO area. I have rope and draws etc ready for sport. Would really appreciate some local know how and belay support!
