Thank you!

We used to hike Bukhansan- when we lived in Seoul- 2002-2004. we lived about 20 minutes from the nearest trail by Yonshinae- At Bukhansan where I first tasted dandelion with bolgogi 😂 so much fun memories hiking in Korea. I remember going up the trail nearby the Palace in Jongno. -It was steep but so worth the view. Soraksan is one our favorites to hike as well. We also hiked Tebaeksan, Jirisan and hollasan in Jeju. I miss the mountains of SK.

Nice!

Great video! I’m hoping to hike this on my visit.

Thanks for sharing this video. Climbing this mountain is one of the greatest memories of my life. I was climbing alone (American solo traveling) and three super awesome local gentlemen asked if I wanted to hike with them. So we hiked to the top and back down together and then they invited me to lunch at the bottom. Truly one of the best days of my life. The memories will live in me forever.

Yeah I have lots of these kinds of experiences. It’s even better in the countryside where they’ll share their rice wine or soju with you up or around the mountain trails haha

You just added a new thing on my list of activities that i wanna do when in Seoul !! Thank you

Yes! Great time to hike

I climbed the Bukhansan back in 2014. Going down, I decided to taking a different/longer path and it started pouring. The water drenched all my gear and damaged by phone. Slipping and tripping on the rocks I hobbled to the entrance/exit when it sudden stopped raining... and that's how life goes.

Yeah!!! But definitely go prepared! I recommend gwanak mountain which will show in a few weeks first. Bukhansan was probably the most challenging... at least the route we took when we went down the rocks towards the back

So nice...a lot of nature, beautiful !!!

A very good guide.. thank you! Btw, I will be hiking in some of the best mountains in South Korea soon. Currently living in America, I’ve hiked in Yosemite and a few best ones in Shenandoah, VA.. I go hiking often but usually locally within Maryland where I live..

Wow. I first climbed Bukhansan in 1990 (American living in Seoul). The trails were primitive (no stairs or walkways). The guide cables at the top did exist. I climbed again in 1998. One of my very favorite places in Korea. Go on a weekday in September. Not too hot; not too many crowds :)

Great guide. Thank you! How does one get a mountaineer to climb this? I was planning on hiking this with my 16 year old in a couple weeks on my own but watching this maybe I need a guide! Please and thank you.

I climbed that mountain; except from the Camp Stanley back gate side, in 2007 while stationed in Korea in the US Army.

Shoes, bag, water, poles help. But I think you can rent it

Which route is this? from where did you start your hike?

"The Most Hiked Mountain in the World in Seoul" As a Korean myself, I highly dispute that. Koreans love making claims like that. Very few people outside of Korea have even heard of Bukhansan, let alone even hiked it. That being said, me and my wife are finally going to do this trek next weekend.

Just shut up , Bottle shoes, lmao

I don’t believe it as the most climbed mountain in the world. There r def many other mountains that r more popular than this, including Mt Fuji in Japan, Swiss alps, Banff, Canada, and many mountains in China
