Daedunsan Provincial Park

TIME : 2016/2/17 16:17:47

This small park has craggy peaks with spectacular views over the surrounding countryside. It also offers vertigo-inducing thrills: the climb to the summit of Daedun-san (878m) is a steep, stony track that includes a 50m-long cable bridge stretched precariously between two rock pinnacles and a long steel-cable stairway. A five-minute cable-car ride saves you an hour of uphill hiking.

Afterwards, you can unwind in the sauna (hotel guests/nonguests ₩4000/6000) attached to the Daedunsan Tourist Hotel . It has an oncheon (hot-spring bath).

Daedunsan can be reached by bus from Jeonju (₩6400, 1¼ hour, five daily) or from Seodaejeon bus terminal in Daejeon (₩3500, 40 minutes, three daily).
