Embark on a captivating journey to the picturesque Osaek Valley in Seoraksan National Park — a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. Renowned for its vibrant fall foliage, this scenic haven boasts captivating rock formations and a fascinating history.
Your adventure begins with a leisurely two-mile walk along a trail linking the Seongguksa Temple, Seonnyeotang Pothole, and the Yongso Falls Information Center. This one-hour route, complete with boardwalks, offers an enchanting journey through rising rocks and lush surroundings. The Osaek Mineral Spring welcomes you at the entrance, delivering water with a distinctive flavor owing to natural carbonation and a high iron content.
Marvel at the extraordinary rock formations along the way, including some of Namseorak's iconic landmarks.
Visit the vast Sokcho Tourist & Fisheries Market, whose 450 stores include fish stalls in the basement and two above-ground levels selling food, clothing, snacks and local delicacies. Don't miss the dak-gangjeong (sweet and sour chicken) — a small but delicious bite.
Notes:
Wear comfortable closed-toe walking shoes (mandatory). Not advisable for guests using a wheelchair or mobility device. Shade is limited; to avoid sunburn, wear light, long clothing suitable for use as a cover-up. Bring a hat and sunglasses; wear biodegradable/reef-safe sunscreen. Bring bottled water.
