I went to take the photo of my lifeThe biggest hike of my life haha.The bathroom and rest facilities are disappointing.Needs more improvement. The view is good.
It takes about 15 minutes for an adult male to reach the top of the mountain. However, it is a steep slope. The scenery is so spectacular that you will completely forget about the difficult climb.
This is a place I have always considered one of the places to visit when visiting Pohang.They say it came from the drama Gaet Village Cha Cha Cha. Actually, I didn't visit after watching that drama, but I was thinking about it for a long time.I know that the drama called Gaet Village Cha Cha Cha is a reinterpretation of the old Korean movie Hong Banjang, but I enjoyed that movie in my early 20s, so I stopped watching it out of nostalgia. The movie featured the late actor Kim Joo-hyuk and Eom Jeong-bun, and it was a movie I enjoyed watching during my military days in my early 20s.When I was in the military, the military base was very far away from my house, so whenever I had time on the weekends, I would often stop by the theater and watch movies.To get here, type E-mark 24 Pohang Chilpo-ri branch in your navigation and when you get there, park in a place where there are a lot of cars parked and you will see a paragliding sign. Look at it and follow it up.The road up is steep, a little rough, and takes time, so I recommend that you keep that in mind.I slowly climbed up with my equipment and it took about 40 minutes.It went up very slowly.When you go up, there is artificial turf on the cool, open summit.You can see the ports below.I visited on a cold day and it was a bit cold, but if you visit in summer it is cool.Maybe you can see stars at night.If I have the chance later, I would like to visit in the summer and take pictures of the stars.Perhaps because it was the weekend, there were a lot of people.You must be careful when going down, and comfortable shoes are recommended.
I learned about this place after it was broadcast on 2 Days & 1 Night and Gaet Village Cha Cha Cha.It is a place that boasts a very, very, very spectacular view that can only be seen in Europe.For parking, you can use the navigation to find the Kunlun Mountain Paragliding Site and park there. On weekends, there may be a shortage of parking spaces there, so you can use the navigation to find E-Mart 24 Pohang Chilpo-ri Branch, park there, and then cross directly across the street. I also recommend going. (The road between E-Mart and the camping site is not the road to the paragliding site, so if you park at E-Mart, you must cross the road and make sure to go up to the barricade on the opposite side that prohibits cars from entering!!! I went to the wrong place. Stand lol)For an average person, it takes about 20 to 30 minutes to climb... This course may be quite easy for professional mountaineers, but for the general public, it boasts extremely vicious and steep slopes, so it may be somewhat difficult for women. Please note this. If you climb hard and climb again, you will reach the summit, and it is truly spectacular, as I mentioned at the beginning. really. From Pohang, you can experience Jeju Island or a little bit of Europe.If you come to Pohang, most people go to Guryongpo or Jukdo Market, but I think it would be a great experience to visit this place as well.Oh, after going up and coming down, eating kalguksu (noodles) and fish cakes sold at E-Mart across the street is also delicious. lol
The address of Pohang Kunlun Mountain Paragliding Site is 914-5 Chilpo-ri, Heunghae-eup, Buk-gu, Pohang-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do. At the entrance to Kunlun Mountain, there is an E-Mart 24 Pohang Chilpo-ri branch, making it easy to find. There is a reasonably sized parking lot near the entrance to the mountain. As it is a hot place, there are quite a lot of hikers. And although the hiking trail is well paved and easy to walk on, the slope is not easy.There are many steep slopes, so the distance to the top is not that long, but the difficulty is quite high. An adult can walk there in about 20 to 30 minutes.Once you reach the top, you will be greeted by an overwhelming view that is not often seen. I really feel like I'm in the sky. The summit floor is made of artificial grass, similar to a paragliding range.It's a good place for a light climb every now and then when you feel your heart pounding.
