Kasagi Boulders: Granite on the Kizu River, a Short Walk from the Station | Japan Climbing Crags

Granite bouldering on the Kizu riverbed in Kasagi, Kyoto: 109 problems on ROCKTOPO (about 100 per CLIMBING-net), mostly 4-kyu to 1-kyu. Both sites list it as year-round, with CLIMBING-net warning that midwinter is harsh. It is a 5–10 minute walk from JR Kasagi Station on the Kansai Line; the boulders are free, but drivers park at the paid Kasagi Campground downstream.

Konpirayama: Ohara's Old Chert Crag, Single Pitches and a North-Ridge Multi-Pitch | Japan Climbing Crags

A chert crag in Ohara, Sakyo Ward, Kyoto: CLIMBING-net says about 70 routes, ROCKTOPO lists 49, most at 5.10 or below, and the walls link into a north-ridge multi-pitch. Neither site gives month-by-month reasons; CLIMBING-net lists it as year-round. Take the Kyoto Bus to Hanajiribashi or Todera and walk about 20 minutes to Ebumi Shrine — never park at the shrine.
