• Korea Forest Service 100 Most Famous Mountains (17/100) • Location: Odaesan, Gangneung, Gangwon-do (1,565.4m) • Date: 21/07/24 • Distance: Approximately 18km • Course: Jingogae Rest Area→Noinbong→Noinbong Shelter→Sobyeonghwangsan (Alba)→Nakyeong Falls→Guryong Falls→Baekundae→Manmulsang→Sogeumgang Branch Office Hello, this is Misun! Today, I came to Odaesan with my boyfriend. At first, we were going to do an 8km tourist valley trekking starting at Sogeumgang, taking a photo of Baekundae, and coming back... but the course suddenly changed, so we hiked the Jingogae course starting at Jingogae and descending to Sogeumgang. Because I ended up working a part-time job in the middle, I ended up walking a total of 18km... It went from a tourist hike to a full-length hikeㅋㅋㅋㅋ However, the descent from Sogeumgang with the sound of the stream along the way made me forget how hard it was 💪🏾 And it was nice to meet Choi Chang-hee, a subscriber and hiking YouTuber whom I met by chance :) #Odaesan #Hiking #MisunHIKING 〽 Characteristics of Odaesan and reasons for selecting it as one of the 100 Best Mountains (Excerpt from the Korea Forest Service) It was selected considering the fact that it forms the largest forest area in the country and was designated as a national park (in 1975) due to its beautiful scenery, and the name of the mountain comes from the five peaks that surround it in the shape of a lotus flower, all of which are flat and form a flat land. There are Woljeongsa Temple, Jeokmyeolbogung Temple, and Sangwonsa Temple. It is famous as the best Buddhist holy place in Korea with many Buddhist relics such as temples and hermitages scattered throughout the valley. 📷 SNS / misun_hiking ♡ Join the Misun Hiking channel membership / @Misun Hiking ※ Copyrights ⓒ Misun Hiking Unauthorized reproduction and redistribution prohibited
