Description

This is a great intermediate hike to the top of Gwanaksan. There are many ways to the top, but this is my favorite because of the more gradual and less technical ascent, the temple you pass, and, of course, the views at the top. It is best to hike this trail early or late, as it is very popular and gets crowded during the day.
