Challenging

South Korea Big 3 Summit Route

Most itineraries start on Jeju with Hallasan, continue to the Jirisan bases for the long ascent to Cheonwangbong, and finish around Sokcho with the Daecheongbong day in Seoraksan. The challenge is built around three separate summit pushes linked by domestic transfers, so it feels like a journey across South Korea as much as a mountain itinerary.
