Hiking the South Korea’s highest mountain

Has anyone hiked Mt. Hallasan? I think, looking back now, this was one of my insane solo trips coz I did it with no prior training (and also a day after I landed) 😅

Went via Seongpanak in December 2025 and I made it as far as Jindallaebat before turning back. No summit for me, but it was still around 14 - 15 km of hiking that day.

Wrote the full story here if anyone’s planning to hike it in winter:
