What you can expect

Embark on a hiking adventure to Bukhansan Mountain National Park, the largest mountain in Seoul. Admire the cityscape of Seoul and the northeastern part of Gyeonggi Province from the summit of Baegundae.

Start your hike from the starting point and make your way to the summit of Baegundae. The tallest among the three peaks is Baegundae (835.6m), and a round-trip hike from the starting point to the summit takes approximately 2.5 to 3 hours.

From the summit of Baegundae, marvel at the beautiful and majestic scenery of Bukhansan, as well as the cityscape of Seoul and the northeastern part of Gyeonggi Province. Additionally, during the ascent to Baegundae, explore Buddhist hermitage and some historical sites such as the ancient Bukhansanseong fortress, built during the Joseon Dynasty.

While taking a brief rest at the top of Baegundae, enjoy a simple mountain snack, such as Gimbap, a favorite among Korean hikers. On the descent route, visit Doseonsa, one of the representative Buddhist temples in Seoul.

Finally, as a traditional way for Korean hiking enthusiasts to conclude the hike, finish your journey by savoring pajeon (green onion pancakes) and makgeolli (rice wine).
