“
Inheriting the grand spirit of Gyeongsang region, Heeyangsan Mountain (996.4m) is an awesome destination in rhododendrons dye the peak pastel pink in May. After dominating the horizon from the summit, a satisfying bowl of pine mushroom hot pot that replenishes your inner energy completes this majestic climb.
”Mountain Features & Selection Reason
The entire mountain looks like a single rock and the rock cliffs are exposed white, so it can be easily recognized not only from the surrounding mountains but also from distant mountains. It was selected taking into account the beautiful scenery such as Baegungok Valley with strangely shaped rocks and abundant water, and the presence of historical relics such as the Rock-carved Seated Statue.
Climbing Points & Features
[The sacred rock peak of Baekdudaegan] Heeyangsan Mountain (999m) is a sacred rock peak that stands tall in the Baekdudaegan Mountain Range and forms the border between Gaeun-eup, Mungyeong-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do, and Yeonpung-myeon, Goesan-gun, Chungcheongbuk-do. It is lower than the nearby Joryeong Mountain (1026m) or Baekhwasan Mountain (1064m), but in terms of beauty, it is by far the best. Daesa Jijeung (824-884), a Buddhist monk from the Silla Dynasty who founded Bongamsa Temple on Heeyangsan Mountain, is said to have praised the appearance of Hueyangsan Mountain, saying, "The mountain is surrounded on all sides like a folding screen, as if the wings of a phoenix are rising and beating the clouds, and the water in the valley is like a belt with a hundred layers, so it looks as if the dragon's waist is prostrate on a stone." The view from the top is spectacular and beautiful. Bongamsa Temple and Bongam Yonggok are visible beneath your feet, and beyond that, the peaks of Daeya Mountain and Songnisan Mountain rise sharply. To the west, the mountains of inland Chungcheongbuk-do, including Jangseongbong Peak, Akhuibong Peak, and Gunjasan Mountain, are surrounded like a folding screen. The view to the northeast is as beautiful as the endless stretches of Baekhwasan Mountain, Undalsan Mountain, and Juheulsan Mountain, as if lotus petals are in full bloom.
A hiking trail is developed starting from Eunti Village, Yeonpung-myeon, Goesan-gun. Climb along the farm road to the east of Eunti Village, pass apple and ginseng fields, and then a hiking trail (forest road) leads up to a gentle valley. From Gyeomtijae, follow the main ridge of Baekdudaegan. At the summit, take a detour and climb up the slope. The slope is steep and the rocky and dirt paths are connected, so be careful as it is easy to slip. Descend back the way you came and follow the right (east) ridge at the main ridge fork. After about 20 minutes, there is a path that goes down to the valley on the left from the castle ruins. There are many signposts and oak trees are thick. After going down for about 30 minutes, a waterfall appears and the slope becomes much easier. If you go down again for about 10 minutes, you will meet the road you took up to Gyeomtijae. The hiking trail toward Mungyeong is strictly controlled from public access at Bongamsa Temple.
