Dear Friends !
We are going to enjoy hiking in Yongma/Geomdan san Mountain at the same time which you can see stunning sceneries of South han river on the top.

+++ Introduction +++
Geomdan Mountain is located in Gyeonggi, Seoul's neighboring province. The 1.5 hours of non-stop incline is a chanlenging test of faith for your health and leg muscles.
The magnificent view at the top let the butterflies in your stomach goes wild, and the cool breeze on the top of mountain allows you to enjoy the perfect glimpse of penetrative Han River into middle of Seoul Mega City. You may change your religion after watching scenic view of Han river on the peak.
Once this trail starts off from fairly easy trail, but goes wide that looks as a truck could drive on it and ends up narrow steep inclined top. The rocky parts are a bit slippery so that you need a good pair of hiking shoes with steady steps on them.
At 657 meters tall, Some part of this mountain is not an easy climbing. Geomdansan is a mountain next to Hanam City in Eastern side of Seoul. It is probably one of the easiest accessible mountains near by Seoul without car. there were not too many people on the trail. Also we will hike a little unbeaten paths to enjoy peaceful atmosphere. As you come up the mountain there are some fantastic mountain views running parallel to the river. This is extraordinary hiking than the other hiking s such as Bukan/Dobong/Kwanak Mountains.
Hiking course is
Sangok Elmentary School - JangSu Tower - Unification Monumental Tower - 3 Way Junction - Highest Peak - Observatory - Yugiljun Tomb -Okuk Temple - Animation High School
This hike is about 12 kilometers( 6 hours ).

Hello fun lovers.
We decided to hike UnAkSan Again because its scenary and environment is too great to miss.
Here is 3 big reasons why you must hike the mountain.
(1) Great scenary on Suspention Bridge - majestice and grandeur

(3) Super Delicy Local Food - Its bottom has the most delicious hand made Tofu soup, hand-made Kimchi and local wild vesetable side dish with reasonable price ( Vesetarian Disk Available )
== It has 6.5 km beatiful hiking trail which was covered many wild flowers.
