  • The falls were great, but what's more awesome are the views along this trail, especially at the near end of it (around the suspension bridge). Would recommend this trail to beginner hikers and...

  • This is the second of three major waterfalls along this hiking route. It is a bit higher than the first fall, but maybe not quite as visually striking as the first (and neither compare to the third). This fall is a little further up the trail than the first one, but it is before the giant set of stairs leading to the final fall, so getting here isn't too difficult. Worth the hike
  • A wonderful hike within the seoraksan national Park I can highly recommend it if you have 2-3 hours to do the whole thing. The first 30% is a gentle stroll on a largely sealed surface. At the bottom of the Cascade section it becomes a rocky incline traversing a series of bridges and elevation. The views of biryong falls are wonderful. However tempting the pools look I was disappointed to know that swimming is prohibited. There are two toilets along the way. Continuing for a final gruelling kilometre is the track to viewing the highest waterfall. This is a tough vertical hike with over 500 steps and a sheltered viewing platform with binoculars at the top. If you have the fitness it is well worth it.
