Description

Naejangsan (내장산) is a 763 m mountain in South Korea, with Sinseonbong as its highest summit. It lies within Naejangsan National Park. The Naejangsa area provides access to valley, summit and ridge trails; a cable car also serves visitors. Autumn foliage is a major attraction, but the relatively low elevation does not make every trail easy. Hiking accounts describe loose rocks and steep paths that become slippery when wet.

Routes

Daegari → Sinseonbong

1.30 km

About 1.3 km one way to the summit according to Aurora. She started two hikes here but describes an isolated trailhead without public transport. Arrange vehicles and the return journey beforehand.

Jelajah delapan puncak / Eight-peak ridge traverse

Menantang / Advanced

Aurora’s guide estimates 14–16 km for the eight-peak traverse. Rocky ridges and repeated elevation changes require experience; several exits descend to Naejangsa. Choose good weather.

Naejangsa → Sinseonbong: pendakian lembah / valley ascent

Sedang–menantang / Moderate–demanding

Casey and Don followed the forest trail to the Sinseonbong–Kkachibong fork, then climbed rocky ground to Sinseonbong. They reported loose rocks and slippery footing in rain. This is a 2014 account; their five-to-six-hour outing included a subsequent ridge traverse and is not a timing for this ascent alone.
