About Paryeongsan

Palyeongsan is the highest mountain in Goheung and first of the county’s ten views. A provincial park from 1998, it joined Dadohaehaesang National Park in 2011.

Eight rock peaks — Seongjubong, Yuyeongbong, Woljulbong, Cheonjubong and more — stand in a row like a screen above the islands of the South Sea.

It is the southern tip of a ridge from the Baekdudaegan, with bare rock cliffs above 400 m.
