Address

79 Sudeoksa-an-gil, Deoksan-myeon, Yesan

Up to the summit it follows the standard route from the Sudeoksa car park past Jeonghyesa. Instead of turning back you drop down the rear ridge and finish at Hanti Pass, about 5 km and two hours in all. You skip the second round of stone steps, which is kind to the knees. The finish is away from the temple, so arrange your ride in advance.
