[2025 Yeongam-gun Attraction] Travel Guide for Wolchulsan (Updated Jun)

I went to Yeongam and visited Wolchulsan National Park, where there was a sculpture park. The Wolchulsan National Park Sculpture Park is decorated with works by about 20 famous domestic artists in the Cheonhwangsa Temple area of ​​Wolchulsan National Park. The sculpture park, created against the backdrop of the majestic rock peaks of Sajabong, Maebong, and Janggunbong, the scenic spots of Wolchulsan, is located on a 5,000㎡ site along the walking trail of Wolchulsan. Wolchulsan is more of a giant work of art made of rocks than a mountain, and the sculpture park was created on Wolchulsan, which is called an exhibition hall of strangely shaped rocks, so you can appreciate the works of art created by nature and humans at the same time! I went for a walk in nature with my children and saw some amazing sculptures and they were amazed. #places to go with kids #Wolchulsan National Park #Wolchulsan Sculpture Park #places to visit in Yeongam

#Hiking ✌🏻Wolchulsan ✔️Location: 280-43 Cheonhwangsa-ro, Yeongam-eup, Yeongam-gun, Jeollanam-do Wolchulsan was a place where I was ecstatic with its breathtaking scenery. It was so beautiful that I was happy every time I took a step, and it was nice to be able to breathe in plenty of fresh air. The mountain covered in clouds was a work of art.

#Hiking Location: 280-43 Cheonhwangsa-ro, Yeongam-eup, Yeongam-gun, Jeollanam-do Spring, summer, and fall are all beautiful, but I think the exotic beauty of the winter mountains is truly unrivaled. The beautiful scenery, as if I had entered a winter kingdom, is still vivid in my memory. Safety is always the top priority, so everyone, hike safely!🗻

#summervacay If you're anywhere near Yeongam, do not sleep on Wolchulsan National Park. I went on a whim and wow, this place delivers. The trail up to the 666m elevation marker is no joke (lots of stairs, my legs still hate me), but the views? Totally worth every sweaty step. There’s this suspension bridge up there that feels straight out of a movie, slightly terrifying but ridiculously cool. The air was so fresh it felt illegal, and the silence up top? Unreal. Just you, the mountains, and the occasional fellow hiker trying not to look as winded as you. I snapped a pic at the 666m sign because, let’s be real, how often do you get to stand at such a devilishly specific height? No demons appeared, just endless ridges and clouds that looked like cotton candy. Wolchulsan is a gem, challenging but super rewarding. Pack snacks, bring water, and thank yourself later.

#summervacay Went hiking around Wolchulsan and wow, that misty mountain vibe is something else. The whole area feels like it’s straight out of a fantasy flick, fog rolling in, rocks popping out like secret giants, and this cool mix of mystery and chill all at once. The trail itself was pretty solid, some easy parts, some spots where you gotta grab onto rocks or hold a chain to keep steady. Definitely keeps you on your toes! The mist made everything feel kinda magical, like the mountain was hiding little surprises just for me. At one point, I couldn’t see more than a few feet ahead, which was honestly a little spooky but also kinda thrilling. The views when the clouds parted were stunning, green mountains peeking through the fog like nature’s own spotlight. If you want a hike that’s low-key but full of those “wow” moments, Wolchulsan’s misty trails are a vibe for sure. Don’t forget your jacket and a sense of adventure!

#summervacay Climbed up to Cheonhwangbong Peak in Wolchulsan and honestly? It felt like stepping into another world. The hike starts off pretty chill, some forest, stairs, the usual, but once you hit the higher parts, it’s game on. Rocky paths, crazy stone formations, and suddenly you’re literally in the clouds. Like, full white-out, can’t-see-10-feet-ahead kinda vibe. It was surreal. Then comes the legendary cloud bridge, yep, that insane suspension bridge high up in the mist. Kinda sketchy? A little. Super cool? Absolutely. Crossed it like a slow-motion action hero (in my mind, anyway). After that, it’s a steep push to the top. Definitely had to take a few breathers. But man, Cheonhwangbong delivers. Once the clouds cleared, the views were straight fire, layers of mountains, dramatic cliffs, and total silence except for the wind. Felt like I was on top of the world. If you’re into hiking with a side of epic, Wolchulsan’s Cheonhwangbong is a must. Worth every step, and sore muscle.

Wolchulsan is one of the top 100 mountains in the country and is as good as any mountain in the country. The scenery with the fantastic rocks is spectacular. Even beginners can climb it in 4~5 hours, so it seems even better. It may seem high because it is 800m above sea level, but the slope is not too steep and is gentle, so if you walk one step or two steps while chatting with a friend, you will soon be amazed by the spectacular view from the top. #Let's go on a trip #Fall foliage trip #Wolchulsan

#Hiking ✌🏻Wolchulsan Wolchulsan was especially beautiful in the winter. There weren't many steep or sloping areas, so it was safe to climb, the scenery was beautiful, and the snow piled up on the rocks that I saw here and there while hiking was beautiful.

#Hiking Wolchulsan is a large mountain representing Jeolla-do. There are various courses, but most of them are rugged, so it is not easy to climb. However, the scenery is so great that it is a mountain that is less boring throughout the hike. Wolchulsan was designated as Jeollanam-do Monument No. 3 on January 29, 1972. #Wolchulsan #Hiking

Not only is the scenery beautiful, but the clean air made me feel like my body and mind were purified. All seasons are beautiful, but I personally like the season when the cold winter passes and the green of spring, full of vitality, is the best.❤️

#SpringTravel -Location: 280-43 Cheonhwangsa-ro, Yeongam-eup, Yeongam-gun, Jeollanam-do After climbing the mountain and sweating, the view you see makes you feel like you own the world. The azaleas that bloomed beautifully everywhere on Wolchulsan Mountain in spring caught my eye. The faint scent of flowers was really nice.

#FlowerViewing ♡Location: Cheonhwangsa District Gunseo Rape Field Area It was the Wolchulsan Rape Flower Festival where I enjoyed the rape flower feast that reached as much as 1 million pyeong. The bright yellow rape flowers that continued endlessly were really pretty.♡

#FlowerViewing ✔️Location: Pyeongri Intersection, Dogap-ri, Gunseo-myeon, Yeongam-gun, Jeollanam-do ✔️Admission: Free There is no separate parking lot, but many people park on the road around the rapeseed flowers and look around. It was a place where the rapeseed flower fields spread out so widely were beautiful. #SpringTravel #SpringOuting
