Seodaesan itineraries

Dream Resort loop day

A 6 km loop straight from the car park. Dragon rock, flat rock, then a summit with the Daejeon plain beyond, and noodles and bread to finish.

Gaegeoksa traverse

Day one is the 8.5 km traverse up past the falls, over the top and down to Heungguksa. Day two is a slow walk through the Geumsan ginseng market and the Chilbaek Uichong shrine.

Seodaesan and Okcheon

Day one starts with Daejeon bread and a gentle walk to the falls; day two is the summit; day three goes to Okcheon, the lake cliff and a poet's birthplace.
