Sanmagi Yetgil

Reviewed By Tourism_201813 - Seoul, South Korea

The Sanmagi-yetgil Trail is a 4 kilometer-long old path connecting Saorang Village to the mountain village Sanmaki. Restored by retracing the old path, Sanmagi-yetgil is a great walking trail passing by mountains, streams, and forests. Most of the path is outfitted with a wooden deck in a eco-friendly method to minimize damages to the environment and to maintain the natural look. The surrounding beauty is recognized as the best scenic view of Goesan. The natural ecosystem around Goesan Dam has been preserved in its original state.

Jeongdong-Simgok Badabuchae-gil Trail

Reviewed By pl55 - Singapore, Singapore

This 2.8 km walk along the rocky coast can be enjoyed by most and not just the super fit. Do start from the Jeongdong end at the Sun Cruise resort as advised by a tripadvisor reviewer as it's easier to go down the higher steeper stairs here. Try not to be nervous when treading on iron grill steps and boardwalk. I thoroughly enjoyed the walk despite the effort of going up and down stairs in several parts. Although visitors are not supposed to take photos along the walk, many of us tend to forget without any problem fortunately. Upon reaching Simgok, we spotted a waiting cab and hopped into it to head for Chodang Village to have our sundubu lunch.

Daepo Haean Jusangjeolli Cliff

Reviewed By raghu67 - Bengaluru, India

One can have a magnificient view of basalt stone pillars formed along the coast due to sudden cooling and solidification of the Lava which flowed into the sea. The sudden contraction of molten lava due to the cooling effect of water has resulted in these rocks splitting into polygonal columns and forming a coast of almost 2 km long. This attraction is worth the visit and can be reached directly by trekking from Cheonjeyeon falls or taking a bus and pass thru the garden (Jusangjeollidae Promenade) and then reach the cliff at the end. Walking around the garden would be relaxing and one should not miss it. Wooden Platforms have been built to reach the end of the cliff and for a better view of the coastal line.
