Conquering Geumgang Mountain Hwaamsa Forest Trail

Geumgang Mountain Hwaamsa Forest Trail is a round course that connects Hwaamsa Temple to Seongindae. The area around Hwaamsa Temple is called North-Seorak today, but it used to be under Geumgang Mountain region before. The road starts from Hwaamsa Temple, crosses by Su Rock, ascends up to Sinseondae, allowing one to observe the splendor of Ulsan Rock. It is a course that allows full introduction to Seorak Mountain range, Sokcho city, and the vastness of the East Sea altogether.
