Best seoraksan walking trail in Sokcho (Cheonbuldong valley trail)


Are you planning to visit Sokcho? There are many touristic places in sokcho city. But today I would like to recommend you one beautiful trail which is close from the sokcho city.


Cheonbuldong valley trail

(Seoraksan National Park, Sokcho)

Walking Route : Sogongwon park to Yangpok shelter

Cheonbuldong Valley trail

Cheonbuldong Valley Trail is one of the most famous places in Seoraksan Mountain, and many people visit it every year. The advantage of the trail built next to the valley is that you can walk while looking at the beautiful scenery. You can take this trail to the top of Seoraksan Mountain, but it becomes difficult from the middle, so I recommend walking to Yangpok Shelter and coming back. The length of the trail is about 15 km round trip and takes about 6 to 7 hours.



After walking to Yangpok Shelter, if you can walk a little further, you will see small but really beautiful waterfalls like the photo above.


Seoraksan Mountain has many other trails besides this one. If you want more information, please visit the official website listed below.



How long does it take to finish cheonbuldong trail? It will take around 6 hours from the Sogongwon park to Yangpok shelter and come back to Sogongwon park (round trip). And this trail is connected to the top peak of seoraksan mountain. so you can even walk more.


Entrance fee? You can enjoy this national park for free. they decided not to take the entrance fee few months ago. But they still take parking fee(KRW 6,000) :( If you don't want to pay for the parking, You can also choose free parking area which is a bit far from the main entrance.(2km)


How to get there? It is located in west side of Sokcho city. You can use your car, and also you can go by bus. It takes only 15mins by car from the sokcho city center to the entrance of seoraksan.(10km), and the bus will take around 50mins. You can check the details with this address down below.
