Naeyeonsan itineraries

Twelve Falls Loop

A 7.5 km loop that looks down into the gorge first, then drops to meet the falls one by one. Three hours on the trail, and a hot bath waiting at the bottom.

Summit, then the Sea

Day one is the full 13 km to the Samjibong summit markers via Munsubong. Day two rests the legs in the temple yard and on Wolpo beach.

Three Days of Water

A gentle walk to Yeonsan Falls first, then a quiet arboretum forest and the coast, then the viewpoint above the falls on day three. The walking builds up as you go.
