Mount Hallasan
It is the highest mountain in South Korea.
The area around the mountain is a designated national park, the Hallasan National Park.
The view from the Summit will be stunning!
Hallasan is commonly considered to be one of the three main mountains of South Korea, along with Jirisan and Seoraksan.
the reason why I like to travel
when I feel like I need a rest
There are a variation of plants you can see as you trekking up,
from evergreen trees to pine, then shrubs
trekking might be tired physically, but its give you rest in your heart
we love the fresh air the greenness give.
September is really a good month for trekking in Hallasan.
Everything is green. You can see some patches of yellow petal too
I think May is not a suitable month for trekking, unless you like rain
​The wind was really strong that day, our umbrellas were almost blowing away
even with strong wind and heavy rain, its do not stop us to trekking up. People from the top shouted "An Dae Yo" 3 times, and drawing a cross in air with his finger to hint us that we should not proceed any further in this bad weather.
in my second attempt in September, everything was fine, but we don't have enough time.
We rest too much and missed out the time to enter the route to the peak of Hallasan
Shrubs are really generous to us, it gives refreshing air to us
Although the mountain peak is near, there is still a long way to go
This is the fourth hour we have gone up the national park
Since it ’s too late, it ’s better to enjoy the moment.
​Looking at the mountain peak, eating our bento
​
We never expected that going down the mountain would be more difficult than going up the mountain
We start to miss the smooth uphill road
Despite this, we are still very optimistic,
after all, this is not a game, there is no exit button
The road down the mountain is really difficult
We even have doubts whether this is the right way
Nevertheless, we are still playing
because we have no way back
Fortunately, we ended up walking in the mountains after 11 hours and successfully descended.
