Soraksan National Park Panorama

Soraksan National Park Panorama

South Korea

View looking North from Sochongbong Peak.

Soraksan National Park is located about 160KM northeast from Seoul. The park lies on the east
coast near the coastal city of Sokcho. Sokcho is located just off the right side of the frame.
On a clear day, the East Sea (Sea of Japan), and the DMZ to the north are easily seen.

The highest summit (Taechongbong-located behind the camera) is at 1709 meters eleavation.
Even without deep snow and having long summer daylight, the round-trip 24KM hike is very
challenging. It is best to stay overnight at the summit shelter.

What can you say about the "shelters" and the "villa" near Taechongbong? What are they like? Do you have to make reservations? What do you think they will be like in mid-July?

Hina, I put more info for you under the photo! ^-^/
I drive my Jeep 4x4 there, but not to the top! Sorry, there are no roads to the top of this mountain! The 12KM hiking trail from Sorak Valley begins at about 200 meters elevation in the flat valley seen at the right side of the photo. The highest summit (Taechongbong-located behind the camera) is at 1709 meters eleavation
