The experience
A 339m granite peak just west of Gyeongbokgung, climbed on a mix of stone staircases and wooden walkways that trace another restored run of the Seoul City Wall. The trail passes weathered rock formations such as Chimabawi (Skirt Rock) and the Guksadang shaman shrine before a short scramble to the summit. From the top you look straight across to Bukaksan, Namsan and the palace district.
A short, sharp city-wall climb that packs history, rock scenery and a full skyline into under an hour.
