Bangtaesan itineraries

Bangtaesan in one day

Idan Falls first, then the two summits of Jueokbong and Gurongdeokbong, and down the Jeokgari valley. One 12.9 km loop, with a hot meal and a mouthful of mineral spring waiting at the end.

Bangagol and the springs

Day one is the shortest line to Jueokbong via Bangagol, then a night in the forest. Day two is a slow round of falls and two mineral springs.

Bangtaesan at a slow pace

Day one warms you up with a waterfall and two springs, day two is the full ridge loop, and day three adds the birch forest at Wondae-ri for a taste of the wider Inje area.
