We will pick you up at your hotel in Seoul, and we move to trailhead of Mt. Bukhansan by my car or public transportation.
From the trail head, you will hike through the beautiful valley where clear water flows. After one hour’s hiking, you will reach to the Fortress wall Gate built in Joseon dynasty located at the ridge of Bukhansan. After a short break, you will visit a Buddhist temple with a thousand years of history on the mountain ridge. We will continue to hike to Baegundae(836m) which is the highest peak of Bukhansan, the summit of Bukhansan, and you will enjoy the beautiful panoramic view of Bukhansan and Seoul at Baegundae.
There are a few steep rock slabs on trail, so this hike is moderate. For beginner hikers, do not be afraid to try out this hike! There is another easier path around the track that will be suitable for beginner hikers to follow. It will take a total of about four to six hours to hike including resting and taking pictures. The guide will choose the best trail considering hiker’s ability, experience and preference under mutual discussion.
We will return to your hotel.
