Highlights
  • Tagy Travel Korea - - Outer Seoraksan; Jujeongol Valley -

Meet your guide at your hotel and move to Mt. Seorak. You will stop at the Misiryeng pass where you overview of inner Mt.Seorak and go to Jujeongol Valley. It got its name from the fact that bandits made counterfeit coins at this valley. Jujeon in Korean means coin minting and gol means valley. An easy hiking course even for children and senior. Lying deep between high mountain ridges you will be able to explore the valley and see nature at its best.  The valley is filled with wild flowers in spring. In summer, the heat is washed away by the clean and cold water of the valley. In fall, the changing colors of the leaves make a fantastic scenery.  Also during this hike, you will stop at Yongso waterfall. A short, wide waterfall surrounded by greenery. Its beauty inspires many to travel here.  Then carry on to the last bridge where you can easily climb down to the river, to get a taste of the Osaek natural mineral water that flows through this valley.  Osaek means five different flavors. The water has strong iron content and is highly carbonated. It’s so famous, that people from all over the country come to Mt.Seorak just for access to it. The fizzy liquid will be refreshing after our morning exercise.

The best tourist experience - We really had a great time going to Mt Seoraksan especially with Lee Jay touring us around. He was very friendly and even went beyond by bringing us to a seafood restaurant and explore some other places that are not included in our package. He is very kind and even helped us in many ways. I highly recommend him.

Great experience - Our guide (sorry I can’t write his name) was very nice, speaks English very well, and has a lot of knowledge about Seorak mountain and about budism, so you learn also a Little about the meaning of the temples there. Thank you so much!!
