Hiking Up Bukhansan Mountain!
Hiking up Bukhansan Mountain:
What's better than going on a hike up one of Korea's most iconic Mountain trails during a couple days off of class? Take a trip to Bukhansan National Park and test your fitness on one of the many different trail paths the park has to offer and enjoy the beautiful views. Going with your friends can turn this one and a half hour hike into a memorable bonding experience for the group.
Couple of Tips if You're Planning on Taking the Hike:
- Bring really good active sneakers (most of the trail is uphill and rather steep)
- Pack lots of snacks, there are many rest areas along the way to catch a breath
- Stay hydrated! Bring electrolytes and lots of water for your time
- Make sure you bring a camera to take some incredible pictures of the views
- Have FUN!!
