Where are we going wild?
Gyebangsan Mountain, the fifth tallest in S. Korea at 1597m, offers stunning winter landscapes and panoramic views of surrounding peaks. With a moderate elevation gain from Unduryeong Pass (1089m), it's accessible to novice hikers. The mountain is home to diverse flora, Asiatic black bears, and rare ecological environments, making it a popular hiking destination.
Seonjaryeong Pass, nestled in the Taebaek mountain range between Pyeongchang and Gangneung, is a winter hiker's paradise. Rising to 1,080 meters, the pass offers breathtaking views of snow-covered peaks and serene valleys. The rugged terrain and dense forests transform into a tranquil winter wonderland, with pristine snow creating a stark and stunning contrast against the bare trees. This picturesque pass is the perfect escape for those seeking peace and natural beauty in the heart of Korea's mountainous landscape.

Can I join alone?
Yes, if you like to share a room, as our price quoted is for twin-sharing. We will do our best to pair you up with other travellers of the same gender who are looking for the same. But if you are the last few to join and all the roommates are paired already, be prepared to pay for a single room. We are unable to guarantee the quality or character of your roommate. If you prefer to have your own room, please specify when signing up.

Who's Suitable?
Any beginner hikers who are active in other sports/exercises & love snow & THE COLD!
