What you'll see and do

1. Hamdeok Beach

   If you walk along Jeju Olle Course 19, you will come across Hamdeok Beach, which has an emerald jewel. Hamdeok Beach, located in Hamdeok-ri, Jocheon-eup, Jeju-si, is also called ‘Hamdeok Seoubong Beach’ because of Oreum (Seoubong Peak) standing right next to the beach. It is only 20km away from Jeju Airport, but the moment you arrive here, you feel like you are in another country. The tall palm trees that welcome you from the entrance, the emerald sea that contrasts with the white sand, the clear water and white waves that make even the sand and seaweed transparent are like that.

5. Eoseungsaengak Trail

   Eoseungsaengak (Eoseungsaeng Volcanic Cone), a parasitic volcano of Hallasan Mountain, can be climbed from the Eorimok District of Hallasan Mountain National Park. From Cheonwangsa Temple, take the 1100 Road from Cheonwangsa Temple to Seogwipo. It takes about an hour round trip from Eorimok to the top of Eoseungsaengak Peak. The hiking trail is made of log stairs, and the floor is laid with wide wooden boards as a measure to prevent soil loss at the summit. At the beginning of the trail, there is a sign that reads "Eoseungsaengak Hiking Trail". The origin of the name Eoseungsaeng came from "the place where the king's horse flies", and there is an interesting legend related to it. A central official was exiled after being falsely accused of treason. This official died here, worrying only about the king and the country, but he said, "I will be reborn and become a horse ridden by the king to support the king.
