K-Roadtrip Part III - Sobeaksan

First stop in neighbouring region Chungcheongbuk-do is Guin-sa, a large temple complex (headquarters of the Cheontae Buddhism) located in another scenic national park, Sobeaksan. Beautifully decorated temples in a valley surrounded by steep forested slopes were simply awe-inspiring. Feeling hike confident, we went for another challenge, Birobong Peak at 1400 meters. The path was unfortunately one steep climb up boosting team’s morale downward (almost equally perhaps?) but we still managed to reach 1000 meters for a well needed lunch break. Exploring Danyang including a river cruise that suddenly turned into a kind of speedboat party party tour (turn on video sound :-) was a nice change of settings.Les mer
