Free Tennis Courts in Seoul

6 venues5 areas

Seoul’s free tennis options include neighborhood park courts, but a free court is not necessarily a walk-in court: the listed sites call for reservations. Access also differs at the university and hotel courts, where affiliation or a stay may determine who can play.

Hwanggeumnae Neighborhood Park

황금내근린공원

A free public tennis court tucked inside Hwanggeumnae Neighborhood Park along Seoul's Anyangcheon stream, popular with walkers and cyclists passing through on the Seoul trail. It's a laid-back spot to play a set outdoors while enjoying the park's cherry-tree-lined riverside setting.

Choansan Neighborhood Park

초안산근린공원

A public park court tucked inside Choansan Neighborhood Park in Dobong-gu, popular with locals for a casual game alongside walking trails and other sports facilities. It's a relaxed, everyday spot rather than a polished club — good for residents looking to play near home.

Ujangsan Tennis Court

우장산 테니스코트

Four outdoor courts tucked into Ujangsan park in Gangseo-gu, a quiet, low-key spot popular with neighborhood regulars. It's a bit of a climb from public transit, but reviewers say it's worth the walk for the calm, unhurried atmosphere. Bookings favor Gangseo-gu residents, so visitors from other districts may find slots hard to come by.
