01 / YOUR NEXT GREAT WALK
Granite summits. City walls. A trail above the sea. Choose the landscape, then get to know the walk.
6 trails
01 / SeoulA short but steep summit approach from the Baegun Visitor Center, climbing through Harujae to Baegundae. The final rocks demand more than the distance suggests.
02 / SeoulFrom the former Donuimun Gate site to Changuimun, this city-wall section crosses Inwangsan’s granite summit and finishes by Yun Dongju Hill.
03 / GangwonA forest-and-waterfall route from Sogongwon past Yukdam and Biryong Falls. Beyond Biryong, a steep staircase reaches the Towangseong Falls viewing area.
04 / BusanWalk from Dongsaengmal toward Oryukdo, with wooded slopes on one side and Busan’s rocky shore on the other. Across the water, the skyline becomes part of the view.
05 / SeoulA loop around Namsan joining the broad North Ringway to the narrower southern forest paths. Choose it for time among trees in the middle of Seoul.
06 / JejuClimb from Eorimok to a small volcanic peak with wide island views on clear days. This short trail reaches Eoseungsaengak, not Hallasan’s Baengnokdam summit.
