There is a lot of snow and ice all the way from Sadang Station to the Gwanak Ridge and down the road to Seoul National University. Crampons are a must! Because it is a ridge, you are directly exposed to the wind, so you need to pay attention to warmth and wind protection. The view is awesome. Does it feel like taking a long walk through Gwanak while looking at the city view from the beginning? There are a lot of stairs and decks, so it's not difficult, but it's good to take your time and walk carefully.

Gwanaksan Mountain is a famous mountain in Seoul and Gyeonggi Province. Although it is small (about 60% of Bukhansan Mountain), it is gorgeous with many rocks. It is often felt that mountains with a lot of rocks have a lot of positive energy. It is the same as saying that he is overflowing with masculine beauty. No matter which course you take, it leaves a fresh impression. It offers a course that even beginners can complete the hike without difficulty. However, it should not be viewed too lightly. As there are a lot of rocks, you need to bring proper hiking gear. Wear hiking shoes with a good ridge function to prevent slipping. Using a stick can reduce the strain on your knees. Even if you take a wrong turn, if you come down the mountain, you will be in Seoul, Gwacheon, or Anyang, so there is no problem in returning home. When you feel tired from boredom, climbing Mt. Gwanak is enough compensation.

📍 Gwanak Mountain Snow Flower Hiking Review It snowed all night, so I decided to quickly hike, parked my car in the parking lot of the Gwanak Mountain Eutteum Park rest area and set off. It was really beautiful as the snow was piled up all along the way up, and the valley in particular was frozen solid in temperatures below -10 degrees Celsius, making it look like a winter wonderland. We stopped at Yeonjuam Rock, had a snack, and arrived at the top of Yeonjudae. I took a lot of pictures and enjoyed the hike like a picnic, so I didn't even know it was difficult and the course felt very easy. I came down from the top toward Gukgibong Peak, and this course had a view 10 times more beautiful than the road I came up from earlier, and it was quiet because there were fewer people. Above all, the view of [Rabbit Rock], a hidden attraction in Gwanaksan Mountain that I discovered for the first time today, was truly fantastic. Today, the round trip took 7 hours and 30 minutes, and I walked 21,784 steps over a distance of 16.53km.

Gwanaksan Mountain - Palbong (8) Ridge (632M) * It is famous as one of the five peaks of Gyeonggi Province along with Songaksan Mountain, Unaksan Mountain, Hwaaksan Mountain, and Gamaksan Mountain. * Palbong Ridge: This is a course that goes from Meorumi Pass, the midpoint between Gwanaksan Mountain and Samseongsan Mountain, to Guksabong Peak (formerly Guggibong Peak), and is a repeated course of climbing up and down numerous rocky peaks. There are some peaks where you can take a side route instead of climbing the peak, but there are also cases where you can't. There are ropes and railings installed on steep slopes, but there are some dangerous places without any facilities, making it very dangerous for beginners to approach. * Course - Government Complex Station - Munwon Falls - Miso Ridge - Palbong - Muromi Pass - Seoul National University * Difficulty - Intermediate * Height - 555M * Time - 4:30 * Distance - 9.50 KM * Speed ​​- 2.1 K

Gwanaksan Mountain has been part of our country’s history for a long time. Because it is a dark mountain, it is full of stones and rocks the entire way up, but it is very refreshing after climbing 691m. It is easy to get to from the metropolitan area and the course up the mountain is well maintained, so although it may be a bit difficult for beginners, there is no problem in climbing up.

Gwaneumsa Temple - Normal - Return to origin I wasn't feeling well after eating bad sashimi a few days ago, but the weather was good so I tried to push myself. It was really impossible. ㅠㅠ In my experience, it was more difficult than the Five Colors Course on Mt. Seorak. Still, I continued to climb up while looking at the scenery. The scenery is wow~!!! Since it was a weekend and the weather was nice, the verification line seemed endless. Haha, even though it's hard, I'm going there, so I'm going to have a good time ~~~ No need for crampons. Please tell me how to punish my friend who brought delicious ground meat~

When your luck isn’t working out, go to Gwanak Mountain⛰️! I hiked Mt. Gwanak to make a wish and receive good energy. I got off at the Gwacheon Government Complex and went on the Gwacheonhyanggyo course, which includes Gwacheonhyanggyo - Yeonjudae - summit - descending from Yeonjuam. I recommend this course as an easy course that is not too rough. If you go to Yeonjudae first, you will reach the top faster. Departure at 6:50 am on Saturday, arriving at the summit at 8:25. I ate and rested leisurely, and it took a total of 4 hours and 20 minutes. When I arrived at the summit, the line to take a photo was not long, but I waited for about 20 minutes to take it. The line gets very long at 8:50, so leave early if you want to take a photo on the weekend! Take a picture, make a wish at Yeonjudae, eat kimbap at the top of the peak where the national flag is located, come to Yeonjuam and make the same wish twice more, eat cup ramen (3.0), and finish happily with Jeongwa makgeolli at a restaurant you see as soon as you come down the mountain🫡
