Gaphasan, Short Climb, Big Feels

#summervacay Headed out to Gaphasan Mountain and honestly, it was such a chill but satisfying little hike. It’s one of those spots where you don’t need to prep like you’re climbing Everest, but you still get that awesome “I did something today” feeling. The trail starts off nice and gentle, weaving through some quiet woods, super peaceful, barely any people, just you and the trees. As you go up, the incline sneaks up on you a bit, but nothing too wild. A few rocky sections keep it interesting, and before you know it, you’re at the top. The view? Way better than expected. You get this wide-open look at the surrounding hills and cityscape, plus plenty of spots to just chill and enjoy the breeze. It’s a great go-to if you want something quick, refreshing, and not too far off the radar. Perfect for a weekend morning escape. Gaphasan’s low-key awesome, especially if you're into simple hikes with solid payoffs.
