Embark on a breathtaking 7-day hiking tour through Korea's most scenic trails. From the peaks of Seoraksan to the serene beauty of Yongneup Swamp, each day promises new adventures and unforgettable memories.

FOUR โ‘ค Majestic Treks & Hikes

  1. Seoraksan, Ulsanbawi Rock Course โ–ฒ873m
  2. Gombaeryeong Pass โ–ฒ1,164m
  3. Yongneup Swamp Valley of Mt Daeam โ–ฒ1,304m
  4. Mt Yongmasan โ–ฒ348m

โ–โ‰กโ–บ Who is suitable?
If you are active & enjoy hiking with an adventurous spirit.
If you are new to hiking BUT do regular exercise & active: this is a good start.
Of the 4 planned trails, the challenging one would have to be the Ulsanbawi Rock Course. It is a short 4 km trail, but the steep elevated climb makes it difficult for some. However, the path is well-seasoned with steps and well-built stairs.

Can I join alone?
Sure, we try our best to match a mate for you. If there is anyone, do prepare to pay extra for a single room (hotel night only).

Discover the enchanting Gombaeryeong Pass in Gangwon-do, nestled within Seoraksan National Park. Famous for its pristine forests and stunning wildflower meadows, often dubbed a 'heavenly flower garden,' this location promises breathtaking natural beauty. With two main hiking trails that start at the Gwidun-ri parking lot or the Jeombongsan Forest Ecology Management Center requiring reservations, adventurers are treated to panoramic views from observation decks. It is ideal for nature lovers seeking a serene escape and a visual feast of flora. ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒฒ

Discover the Mystique of Yongneup Swamp Valley: A Restricted Trail with Rich History
Embark on an extraordinary journey to Yongneup Swamp Valley on Mt. Daeam, nestled in Gangwon-do. This unique high-moor wetland, sitting at an elevation of 1,280 meters, offers a rare glimpse into Koreaโ€™s only high-altitude swamp. Once within the DMZ Civilian Control Zone, this trail still bears reminders of its tumultuous past, with marked "bomb" areas that remain uncleared.
This restricted trail, which requires a reservation and is limited to a certain number of daily hikers, promises an adventure like no other. Explore the diverse flora and fauna that thrive in this pristine environment, designated as Korea's first Ramsar wetland.
Book your spot and step into a world where history and nature intertwine, offering a hiking experience that is both educational and exhilarating. ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿž๏ธ
