Deogyusan Sightseeing Gondola to Hyangjeokbong Peak photo

Deogyusan's Hyangjeokbong Peak stands 1,614m above sea level and is said to rank as Korea's fourth-highest mountain peak. You take the gondola up to Seolcheonbong, then follow a short ridge to the summit.

Around the summit, yew trees, Korean firs, and royal azalea colonies grow, bringing a different scene each season; in winter, heavy snowfall makes it well known for snowscapes. There is also said to be a ridge traverse course that continues to Namdeogyusan.

Useful tips

  • The stretch from Seolcheonbong to Hyangjeokbong is a short ridge section, so just taking the gondola still gives you access to summit views.
  • Because it's high-altitude terrain, temperatures are lower than on the plains, so it's best to bring outerwear suited to the season.
  • Gondola operating hours and fares vary by season, so check official channels before you visit.
