Hiking in Hallasan National Park in winter is becoming popular.
According to the Hallasan National Park Management Office on the 2nd, reservations for the night hike (Seongpanak and Gwaneumsa trails) for the New year’s sunrise on January 1, 2025, which started at 9 a.m. on this day, were closed in about 40 minutes.
As soon as reservations began that day, more than 10,000 people flocked to the Hallasan tour reservation system, causing a connection failure for a while. As soon as 9 a.m., there were 5,000 to 6,000 people waiting, and the reservation website itself did not open properly.
Mr. A, a resident, said, “I tried to make a reservation as soon as it started at 9 o’clock, and it was only accomplished in about 40 minutes.”
Even in inclement weather,people are heading towards baeknokdam,the summit of Hallasan Mountain.
The Hallasan National Park Management Office has temporarily canceled reservation visits to Seongpan and Gwaneumsa Temples for a month from the 27th of last month to the 27th of this month.
Only the Hallasan Seongpanak course (9.6 km,1,000 people per day) and the Gwaneumsa course (8.7 km, 500 people per day) require advance reservations to visit, and can be visited freely for a month.
From November 27th to 29th, the first day of temporary lifting, access was virtually restricted due to bad weather. On November 30th, when the weather cleared up and the area was partially restricted, 790 people visited Baekrokdam, and on the 1st, 988 people visited Baekrokdam.
As of October, the number of visitors to Hallasan this year was 754,586, including 680,586 Koreans and 74,000 foreigners.
