Jirisan National Park- hiking/camping

Country forums / North-East Asia / South Korea

Hey all, I have some vacation time to take in a couple weeks and am wanting to head to Jirisan for a few days of hiking/camping. Can anyone give me any tips, advice, direction, etc... about doing this? Also, I am heading alone, any crime issues? I am assuming it is much like the rest of South Korea and very safe. Thanks a bunch. Colin

You'll be safe.

Avoid weekends to avoid crowds.

Not many camping options. Maybe sleep in a mountain hut.
