Itinerary description

The trailhead starts at the Haenggu information booth in Chiaksan National Park. There is a fee parking lot. There is also some free parking down the road if you are willing to walk a little more. There are restroom facilities and park maps at the trailhead. The first part of the trail follows a road for 2.5 km up to a temple where the hiking path starts. I rated it moderate even though it is short because of how steep it is.
