  • I was all over the map (literally) until I realized the dotted lines are the park boundaries and the clear lines are the paths. I made a 3 hour hike into a thoroughly enjoyable 7 hour hike!

  • Hottest and most humid hike I have ever done. If you start the journey to the top, be prepared for a battle against your mind. Do not give up though, as the views from the peak are to die for... Bring lots of water and patience!
  • Easy to reach from Gwangju Songjeong train station - a Subway ride and follow by bus 54. However, took one of the two shorter 4.9km Geotrail 2 and there was absolutely nothing to see, not even red maples in late October in the first 1.4km hike up to Tokki Deung Hill - a huge disappointment! Resting chairs are only available not too long after the climb but were getting lesser as we ascend up. After one hour of hard climbing (with 2 rest stops) covering 1.4km, we retrace our footsteps to come down for a nice lunch! Not for the not so young & not so fit. Think twice about going here! Hope we have better luck with Naejangsan National Park soon.
