Park at the Osojae rest area, take a mouthful from the spring and head up to the ridge. The path to Osimjae pass is a forest walk that warms you up, then the rock ridge opens and Noseungbong stands right ahead. The stretch from there to Garyeonbong is short but mixes steps and rock, so you breathe hard. The trailhead is already high, which keeps the climb short compared with the Daeheungsa side. You return by the same path.
