Seoraksan National Park - Up & Down Daecheongbong Peak
Daecheongbong is the third highest peak in South Korea, at 1,708m, and one of the best viewpoints in Seoraksan National Park. On clear days, views extend to the east coast and the far ocean horizon. I's popular among hikers to overnight in one of the high shelters and watch the sunrise from atop Daecheongbong. From the main park entrance, the distance to the peak is about 11km. But from the hot spring area of Osaek, a steep trail leads 5km straight up to Daecheongbong.
