Let's hike to the highest peak in Seoul! (836 m / 2743 ft) You can really sense the seasonal changes in the mountain. We did a lot research to find the fastest trail to the peak, which is 4 hours instead of the regular 6 hours. Even though it is the most visited mountain in Seoul, hundreds get rescued from this mountain every year. Don't risk it! I will take you through the safe and sound trail. Make it easy. Delicious lunch is waiting for you after the hike (optional).

The ascending part of the hike will have an elevation change of 600 meters (2,000 ft) within 2.1 km (1.3 miles) which normally takes around 100~120 minutes. You will need to be moderately fit to finish this hike. Imagine if you could go up-and-down 200 floors of stairs.
