Mountain to Sea: The Ultimate Escape to Seoraksan and Naksansa!
Escape the urban rush of Seoul and immerse yourself in Korea’s most breathtaking natural landscapes. This curated day tour combines the awe-inspiring granite peaks of Seoraksan National Park with the serene coastal spirituality of Naksansa Temple. Designed for those who crave a peaceful retreat without the stress of public transport, this is the ultimate “Mountain-to-Sea” experience.
🌿 Tour Highlights
1) Seoraksan National Park
Known as the “Snowy Crags Mountain,” Seoraksan is South Korea’s most photographed mountain and a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. Marvel at towering stone pillars, lush forests, and ancient temples hidden in the valleys. For a panoramic 360-degree view with minimal effort, you can take the scenic cable car (optional) to enjoy the jagged beauty of the peaks.
Enjoy the breathtaking and majestic peaks of Seoraksan National Park.
2) Naksansa Temple
With a 1,300-year history, Naksansa is a rare coastal temple perched on the cliffs overlooking the shimmering East Sea. Walk along scenic cliffside paths, listen to the waves crashing below, and visit the massive Haesugwaneum-sang (Statue of Avalokitesvara) standing tall against the ocean horizon. It is truly one of the most spiritual and beautiful spots in Eastern Korea.

The guide was very kind and professional. I enjoyed very much.

The weather was unpleasant as it rained all day and ruined the trip, which is long on a bus not particularly comfortable or well equipped. There is not much more beyond the shuttle service as the guide is not a guide. He will tell you when to be back to the bus and where to eat and two things worth seeing. He will not accompany you on any hiking and will not share insights on the history and culture of the locations you visit or the country itself. This trip was not worth the money.

The long drive is worth it. We greatly enjoyed our time in the National Park. We had sufficient time to ride the cable car, eat lunch, and complete a hike on a trail that parallels the river. We also liked the Temple, and found tume to sit on the beach watching the waves come in. The East Sea is beautiful.

The trip is very organized, but since we went there on a National Holiday our time at the peak was very limited. But I was all worth it, our driver and guide Seo is very extra helpful and really knowledgeable in terms of sharing information.

On the day we visited the place, it was raining and the wind was so strong. Nevertheless, the hiking up to Mt. Seorak is pleasant tho it’s very tiring. The view on the top compensate everything ! It’s a pity the cable card was unable to operate due to the strong wind. Naksansa temple is beautiful and tranquil. Felt so peaceful and calm. Special Thanks to David for taking care of my parents when i’m busy climbing up the Mt. Seorak and Naksansa temple. KUDOS to Korea Travel Easy team for making my holidays so easy and hassle free. THUMPS UP !!!
