5 Things to do Good for Adrenaline Seekers in Jeju Island That You Shouldn't Miss
Where else can you find an azalea-framed volcano to climb, a sisterhood of deep-divers, and ancient stone statues on which to make wishes? Jeju Island. A favorite with newlyweds (and K-drama fans), this popular retreat is also home to miles of golden beaches, winding coastal trails, and Jeju Waterworld, the area’s largest water park. No matter what your fancy, one thing is for certain: a day of sightseeing isn’t complete without enjoying some of the isle’s delicious raw seafood and famed barbecued black pork.

An UNESCO Biosphere Reserve and a World Heritage Site, the Hallasan National Park is loaded with walking trails and is home to South Korea’s highest mountain named the Shield Volcano Hallasan. You’ll find about 1800 different kinds of plants and a number of alpine animals along the way up. The park is a unique place for nature lovers. Settled right in the heart of Jeju island, this park with high density woods and blooming hillsides is concidered as a treat to be at. Transportation: start with chosing a right trail for you. There many different ways up to the mountain, but only one of them will bring you to the summit. To get to the entrance you’d probably need to take one of the public busses or rent a car. Both options are convenient. Equipment: You’d definitely need to be prepared for a long and tiring walk. All the trails are devided into segments, based on their difficulty. Some of the parts of the trail would be paved, some wouldn’t be equipped at all. You’d be grateful for those parts where you’d be able to walk and step on the wooden bridges and paths. But except those short and the easiest parts of the way, you’d need to climb on the steep and narrow rocks, hop along cobblestones and boulders. Timing: don’t rush, remember when you’re on the top, that was only a half of your journey. There is the same long way down the mountain when you’re on the summit. Tips: be prepared for considerable change of the temperature and other weather conditions. We started in a pleasant sunny day and finished when it was drizzling and the fog was literally embracing us. Add up some wind and decreased temperature and you’re almost in our shoes out there. You’d definetely need to wear tracking boots or something alike, protecting and supporting your feet well. Otherwise you risk hurting your ankles and knees. (as us, cause we were not prepared) You’d also want to change your clothes after 6-7 hours tracking up and down this mountain. Believe me you’ll be sweating af.

We visited this place while walking the Olle trail route 10 and its great view and fresh seafood were very pleasing and I strongly recommend it. Definitely great to snap some fantastic photos while enjoying the rocky beach. The whole place was very clean and I just really enjoyed my time there chilling and staring at the ocean and volcanic cliffs. It took about 30min to walk the whole path but if you want to take everything in, chill and take some pictures 1 hour and more would be perfect.

There are several trails to various peaks of Hallasan. Travelling with family and limited time, we only hiked one of the shorter trails i.e. Eorimok. The 1.3 km trail begins where the car park is. From the car park, it is only a 300 meter hike uphill and you are at the top (the lower peak). Being December, there is already snow (or frost?) at the peak. Magical... Oh, and we took a public bus from Jeju bus terminal which costs us less than KRW 2,000 per person, and the park entrance is free. You only pay for parking if you drive there
