Free Korea Peak, Mountain summit in Chuy Region, Kyrgyzstan

Free Korea Peak rises to an elevation of 4777.6 meters within the Kirghiz Ridge, featuring a prominent 900-meter wall on its northern face.

The first documented climbing expedition to reach the northern wall of Free Korea Peak occurred in 1959, led by mountaineer V. Andreev and his team.

The peak became a symbol of mountaineering excellence in the Soviet era, ranking among the most challenging climbs alongside Ushba and Chatyn-Tau peaks.

Climbers typically require two days to complete the ascent, with established routes taking between 27 and 33 hours of active climbing time.

The northern face contains fourteen distinct climbing routes, with the central path graded at 6A offering an unexpected entry point for skilled mountaineers.
