Dobongsan Mountain Entrance

"Dobongsan, a rugged mountain north of Seoul, offers a thrilling hiking experience. Its rocky peaks and challenging terrain make it a favorite among seasoned hikers. While the climb may be tough, the breathtaking views from the summit are well worth the effort and especially beautiful with fall foliage. Please wear gloves and shoes with a good grip for this. There are some steep and rocky parts on the trail. Also don't forget to start early to avoid it getting dark on you on the way back down.
