The pictures really do not do this rock formation justice! You can see both the inside of the park and the outside of it on the top, as well as the ocean and Sokcho in the distance. The sheer drops...

A good day hike for the beginner or advanced trekker. Beautiful scenery and plenty of photo opportunities along the way

Really beautiful place. The hike is easy for the first 4/5ths of it. The last kilometer is intense though. Lots and lots and lots of stairs. I went in the winter, so snow was covering the trail the whole time. Though luckily the snow made it easy to climb over the stairs and not have to take a step on every single stair. The climb down was a little hairy, I wish I had had shoes spikes on. I have done this hike in Autumn also and it's exhausting when you have to climb every single stair individually. The views at the top are worth it though.

Amazing view! Beautiful mountains. quite harder hike than I expected but it was worthy! The way is perfectly made.Just during “winter” time some time slippery. At the top ~ so so windy!!! so be careful 😇

Really wonderful place for hiking. Worth the climb!! It might be little difficult for some to climb lots of stairs but the view from top is worth it.

For me the best hike in sokcho. Tiring on the way up but incredible views at the top. We had fog when we went but it was still very impressive. Hike takes around 4h to complete

The climb was tough. But I was rewarded with one of the most breathtaking views. Worth it!
