Bukhansan National Park
Bukhansan National Park is listed in Guinness World Records as “the most visited national park per unit area” – which is easy to understand, since it lies within Seoul’s city limits and is easily reachable by public transportation. You’ll often see athletic Koreans in colorful hiking gear riding the subway to this spot on weekends.
The park covers 80 sq km of jagged peaks, with hiking trails, dozens of storied temples and 1300 species of plants and animals. The 5-hour, 7.6km round-trip hike to the 836m summit of Bukhansan is well worth the effort – with the reward a view of Seoul spreading out in all directions.
