🇰🇷 Witse Oreum Shelter to Nambyeok Junction @ Hallasan
Hallasan is the highest mountain in South Korea, located on Jeju Island. There are a few stunning hiking trails to explore this beautiful volcanic mountain. We chose Yeongsil Trail which is of moderate difficulty level and does not require a permit. The trail leads hikers through lush forests and offers spectacular views of the island and beyond.
The trail from Witse Oreum Shelter to Nambyeok Junction is the last stretch of Yeongsil Trail which is 2.1 km long. Witse Oreum is one of the oreums (parasitic volcanoes) on Hallasan. Nambyeok Junction is located in front of Nambyeok of Donnaeko Trail, where the path to Witse Oreum and the path to Donnaeko area separate. The observatory at Nambyeok Junction offers breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape.

🇰🇷 Folding Screen Rocks on Yeongsil Trail @ Hallasan
Hallasan is the highest mountain in South Korea, located on Jeju Island. There are a few stunning hiking trails to explore this beautiful volcanic mountain. We chose Yeongsil Trail which is of moderate difficulty level and does not require a permit. The trail leads hikers through lush forests and offers spectacular views of the island and beyond. However it does not lead to the summit and also the crater lake.
We passed by Byeongpungbawi Rock (Folding Screen Rocks) about 1.5 km into the hike. The towering rocks have the appearance of a folding screen and thus are referred to as the 'Folding Scree Rocks. The views of the surrounding mountains on this section of the trail were spectacular!
