From Daejeonsa you walk about 3.5 km past Yongchu Falls to the Geumeunggwangi fork above Yongyeon Falls, shoulder to shoulder with everyone else. Turn toward Wolwoe and the mood changes: 3.6 km down to Neogu village, 1.5 km on to Dalgi Falls, and 1.9 km out, with hardly another hiker. About 10.5 km one way in all, so arrange a ride back from the far end.
