Description
The most popular climbing area in Yogyakarta, Siung located right next to the beach. A typical limestone climbing area, climbing at Siung is a different experience.
To get into the area you will pay an entrance fee (less than a dollar) at the ticket booth on the left side a few kilometer before the beach. Parking fee is managed by the locals and paid separately.
Camping in the climbing area is not suggested, but you can camp on the beach. Also, there is a lodging place called "Kedai Panjat Moro Seneng" in the very west of the parking spot where I always stayed. There are a few rooms or just use their plastic mats to sleep on the floor. You can use their bathrooms to shower, and order food from them.
There were several rebolting attempts for some routes in Siung, but corrosion is the worst enemy here. ALWAYS check the bolts before you climb!
