[2025 Jeongseon-gun Attraction] Travel Guide for Mindung-san (Updated Mar)

#CanadaFlightEvent [Gangwon-do/Mindungsan] 1,119m tall bare mountain I went to the 1,119m tall bare mountain. There were no trees at the top of the mountain and it was full of reeds, so I decided to go see the reeds, but my friend insisted on drinking cola instead of bringing water; I was at a loss, and I was almost exhausted halfway up the climb, so I almost gave up and came back at the entrance; I was at a loss; The people coming down laughed heartily. It must have been a pitiful laugh for the young people who were so physically weak. 📍Address: Nam-myeon and Hwaam-myeon, Jeongseon-gun, Gangwon-do

Although Jeongseon Mindungsan is located about 3 hours by car from Seoul and about 2 hours and 50 minutes by Jeongseon Arirang Train, during the Eulalia Festival, people from all over the country come to see it, even chartering tour buses. Today, countless tour buses and cars were lined up in the parking lot, and many people also come from early morning to take a commemorative photo at the summit of Mindungsan by train. After getting off at Mindungsan Station, we had lunch and started hiking at 1 p.m., and people who had taken tour buses since early morning took commemorative photos at the summit and continued to descend. The road is narrow, and it is exhausting to wait for the crowds to pass. To do this, you have to pass through the narrow space, and come down before the sun sets. We arrived at the summit around 2:30 p.m. and waited for a commemorative photo, which only lasted about 15 minutes. Rather, if you climb to the summit before noon, the waiting time for the certification shot is really extreme. Rather, if you take the 8:30 Jeongseon Arirang train from Cheongnyangni and arrive at Mindungsan Station at 11:16 and have a hearty lunch at a restaurant in front of the station before hiking, there will be some difficulties with passing traffic, but the waiting time for the certification shot at the summit will be significantly reduced. If you think of Mindungsan as a mountain behind your neighborhood, you will get a big nose. You must wear hiking boots and bring poles to safely descend. Today, there were people who fell on Mindungsan because it rained in the morning. It was steep from the beginning and it was hard to breathe. It is a mountain where you must be prepared and be careful of safety accidents. Of course, once you reach the summit, it is gentle and there are many places to take pictures. You should think of it as a difficult mountain until you reach the summit. These are my thoughts on Mindungsan so far. #Mindungsan Silver Grass Festival #Gondeure Rice #Jeongseon Arirang Train ##Mindungsan Silver Grass Festival

Even for those who usually don't go hiking, it was a nice and easy hike. It takes about an hour. There is no entrance fee. There is parking available nearby, but if you arrive late, it might be difficult to find a spot. I saw some people camping at the top, and it seems to be quite popular on Instagram, as there were a lot of people. I recommend visiting if you're in the area.

Before autumn arrives, the scenery of Mindungsan showcases the pure green beauty of nature, offering a different charm compared to the autumn landscape. It takes about 30 minutes of uphill walking from the parking lot to reach the top. Since there is no shade, it is recommended to bring an umbrella or a hat. ✅ 🏃 Takes 30 minutes 🚘 Use Balgudeok Parking Lot (shortest route) 🏠 275 Eulsaekkotgil, Jeongseon-gun, Gangwon-do
