Bukhansan Hike: Seoul's Stunning Summit
I had the opportunity to hike Bukhansan, the highest mountain in Seoul, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. To get there, I took the subway to Gupabal Station (Line 3), and then transferred to Bus 704 bound for Bukhansan National Park. The bus ride took about 20 minutes, and then I got off at the Bukhansan National Park entrance.
The hike itself was challenging, but well worth the effort. It took me about 4 hours to complete the trail, which covered a total distance of around 8.5 kilometers. The first part of the trail was relatively easy, with some steep inclines, but as I got closer to the summit, the trail became steeper and more difficult.
However, the stunning views from the summit made all the effort worthwhile. From the top, I could see the entire city of Seoul, and the scenery was simply breathtaking. I also had the opportunity to explore the surrounding area, which was full of natural beauty and peaceful tranquility.
Overall, I would highly recommend hiking Bukhansan to anyone who loves the great outdoors and wants to experience the beauty of Seoul from a different perspective. Just be sure to bring plenty of water, wear comfortable hiking shoes, and be prepared for a challenging but rewarding adventure.

The climb wasn't very easy for a beginner like me. But the view of this mountain is spectacular
If you prefer hiking or just taking long walks in the outdoors while visiting Seoul, this might be the solution for you. Very close to the city and gorgeous views. Although the hike can be a little challenging at times, you won't regret it once you reach the peak.
I went here because everything was closed for the Lunar New Year and was waiting for my flight to Jeju the next day. But WOW what an amazing surprise. this National Park is stunning, the walk to the summit is tough going but beautiful and the rock scrambling at the top is a lot of fun. If you like nature then I fully recommend a day trip out to this stunning National Park. I loved it!
I climbed the sunrise! The rock walls and thrilling courses were so fun. It's a beautiful mountain in four seasons
The weather is nice in autumn, but there is nothing as happy as climbing the mountain with the person you love.
The best famous mountain near Seoul. Many courses make hiking fun.
