Oedolgae
About 2km west of Seogwipo, the 20m-tall volcanic basalt pillar called Oedolgae juts out of the ocean. Like other unusual-shaped rocks there's a legend associated with it - a Korean general is said to have scared away Mongolian invaders by dressing the rock up to look like a giant soldier. Oedolgae is a pleasant walk through pine forests to a beautiful cliffside lookout.
Bus 200 or 300 (both around ₩850, five minutes, eight daily) run to Oedolgae or else it's an easy and pleasant 30-minute walk from town.
