"Anyone can trek. If you can walk, you can trek. But after walking from 7:00 AM for 4 to 5 hours in 9,000 to 13,000ft altitudes, well it felt like 'death in the afternoon"
Melanie and Kevin Murray No need to be panicky for South Korea won't offer you 9,000 to 13,000ft altitudes when trekking is concerned. Trekking in South Korea is, therefore, a favorite thing to do. In fact, tourists from different countries have been coming here with a view to enjoying the lush green mountains of this country. Don't worry! Here travelers trek won't lead you to 13,000ft altitudes, so that you have indeed something to fear. Trekking combines hiking and camping in a single trip. Come to South Korea and enjoy the thrill. Exploring Udo, situated off the South of South Korea you can trek at the small mountain with a lighthouse museum on top. The cliffs are spectacular and the winding roads are quaint. Decide to check out the very famed BukHanSan mountain range that towers over downtown Seoul. The snow didn't keep the hard core hikers inside#- instead it was more of an excuse to check out the mountain. Beomeosa Temple is a little way out of the city it was certainly do-able in a morning and judging by the amount of Koreans decked out in trekking gear it was a popular destination. Once you will reach the highest peak taking the difficult route you would stop for lunch, then make your way along the ridge and take the easy way down. Go up to Mount Sorak National Park for trekking! It would be a fun day trekking on snow, and it was very slippery to walk on snow. You may fall the most times, but you will be enjoying so much fun that you would not think so much about the pain.
