Obongsan offers a hike along a rocky ridge with captivating views of rock formations, stone pagodas, and waterfalls. This mountain holds cultural significance as the site for quarrying Goodeuljang, a flat stone used in the traditional Korean underfloor heating system, Ondol. From the 1940s to the 1980s, it was a major source of Goodeuljang, accounting for 70% of national production. The well-preserved cart trail, once used to transport quarried stones by cow-drawn carts, leads hikers to either the waterfall (15 minutes) or the peak (40 minutes).
