Obongsan Mountain Weather★ 100 Famous Peak

This is the sign for Deulmeori, a convenience store converted from a small truck in Bae Hu-ryeong. If you follow the steep mountain path on the right, you will reach a ridge intersection with a cairn on a rock. After passing Peak 2 and Cheongsol Rock with its beautiful old pine trees, you reach Peak 3 and the real rock climbing begins. There is a memorial plaque for someone who fell to his death at the beginning to raise awareness, but the view is limited until you reach the fourth peak. From there, it is a pine forest path up to the summit and the view from the summit is not good. The descent from Namneung Intersection is also a rough road. The Seondong Valley side is mostly cliffs, and there are difficult courses such as Hole Rock and Peak 688 where you have to traverse between rocks. There are four iron rope sections on the way down to Cheongpyeongsa Temple after passing Peak 688. The first of these is so dangerous that there was a crash and death in 1995. After passing all four, you will go to the front of Cheongpyeongsa Beomjonggak.

The starting point is Chuncheon. In the city, regular buses (No. 11) and seat buses (No. 12-1) to Soyang Dam run every 30 minutes, and the same goes for the ferry to Cheongpyeongsa Temple. There are 14 buses going to Bae Hu-ryeong from the intercity bus terminal. There are direct trains to Chuncheon every 15 minutes from East Seoul Terminal, 47 from Sangbong Terminal, and 14 from Busan General Terminal, and there are also 20 trains on the Gyeongchun Line. Outside of Gangwon-do, there are buses from Daegu, Ulsan, Pohang, Andong, Jeonju, Daejeon, Onyang, Cheonan, Cheongju, Seongnam, Suwon, Ansan, Incheon, Goyang, and Uijeongbu. In Seoul, use the Gyeongchun Highway (National Road 46), and in the Yeongnam region, use the Jungang Expressway. In the Honam and Chungcheong regions, take the Central Expressway at Hanam Junction → Paldang Bridge → National Road 45 in Joan-myeon → enter Gyeongchun Road at Saeteo Intersection. In Gangwon-do, where there are buses to Chuncheon almost everywhere, you can follow the direct route.
