Deungnyang-myeon

It is not just any mountain. The hike up Mt. Obongsan takes you along a rocky ridge and fascinating views with rock formations, stone pagodas, and waterfalls. In particular, this mountain is a unique cultural heritage because it was the place for quarrying Goodeuljang, which is a flat stone used in Ondol (underfloor heating system for Korean traditional houses). It had been actively quarried from 1940s to 1980s and accounted for 70% of the production of Gudeuljang nationwide. To deliver the quarried stones from the mountain to the ground, the cart drawn by a cow was used. The cart trail is still well preserved, and we will hike up through the cart trail to the waterfall (15minutes) or to the peak (40minutes).
1 hour 10 minutesAdmission Ticket Free
