Temple Trails and Peaceful Peaks

#summervacay Spent a day hiking Soyosan and honestly, it was such a nice mix of chill and challenge. The trail kicks off near a beautiful temple area, which already sets the tone, calm, peaceful, and kinda spiritual. The beginning’s super easy, like a relaxed forest stroll with streams and little bridges that make you wanna stop and just vibe. But don’t get too comfy, ‘cause once you pass the temple zone, the trail gets steeper real quick. Lots of stairs and rocky climbs that’ll definitely wake up your legs. Nothing too extreme, though, just enough to feel like a real workout. Once you hit the top, the views are chef’s kiss. Total panoramic beauty, mountains, sky, and fresh air for days. Also, bonus points for how clean and well-marked everything is. Soyosan’s perfect if you want a hike with some peaceful nature, a bit of history, and views that make you forget your phone. Solid half-day adventure, would 100% go back.

This is a great hike! It is pretty steep no matter which route you take up, but once you get up top, it isn't as bad. You will hit multiple peaks of various heights if you do the full loop as you traverse the ridgeline. The views are amazing! It's pretty rugged in spots, but overall the trail is pretty well marked. If you do the full loop, it's about 4.3 miles and takes about 3ish hours depending on your speed. it’s a must visit places in South Korea, 20 miles outside Uijeongbu and like 50 miles from Seoul, the condition and environment is pretty good I recommend you tried friends and family it’s worth it if you like hiking#gooutside
