Introducing Suanbo Hot Springs

This relaxing spa resort, 21km southeast of Chungju, is small enough to walk round, and its restaurants specialise in rabbit, duck and pheasant meals. Nearby is Woraksan National Park and a small ski resort. The tourist information centre (845 7829) is on the main street near the bus terminal.

Less than 2km from Suanbo Hot Springs is Sajo Ski Resort (; 846 0750; www.sajoresort.co.kr), which is very modest in scale, a big handicap in a country that believes bigger is better. There are seven slopes and three lifts, and ski equipment can be hired. Night skiing is also possible. Near the slopes is a hotel and a youth hostel, but the best plan is to stay in Suanbo and use the free shuttle buses that run during the ski season.
