Buramsan: Chill Vibes with a Side of Sweat

#summervacay Buramsan is like that underrated friend who turns out to be super fun once you actually hang out. The hike starts off pretty mellow, lots of trees and shade, and you're thinking, “Okay, this is cute.” But don’t get too comfy, it gets steeper real quick. Nothing too wild, but enough to make your legs question some decisions. The cool part is how peaceful it feels. Not too crowded (at least when I went), and the forest-y vibes are strong. Plus, you get these little peeks of the city through the trees that keep you going. The summit’s got some decent views, and if you’re into taking a break with a snack and pretending you’re in a hiking movie montage, this is your moment. Coming down is smooth, and there are a few different trails to explore. Perfect for when you want a solid workout but don’t feel like going full mountain goat. Would 100% recommend for a weekend reset.
