Gangcheonsan itineraries

One Loop to Wangjabong

Turn off at Byeongpung Falls, loop over Gitdaebong and Wangjabong, then come down to the temple and finish in the gochujang village. The foliage tunnel is saved for the slow walk back.

Long Ridge and Hot Spring

Day one is the long ridge to Hyeongjebong, ending at Gujanggun Falls. Soak at the Damyang hot spring, then finish lightly with the Chaegyesan bridge and the gochujang village.
