    Tips

    November 11, 2018

    Samgakbong shelter is a checkpoint that you have to reach before given times (varies depending on seasons). This is why it is advised to start your hike as early as possible in order to reach this checkpoint and of course the summit (also has a time limit which you are not allowed to stay beyond, when I did the hike it was at 14:00) comfortably. It took me around 2.5 hours to reach the checkpoint from Gwaneumsa's trail start. I was rushing slightly as I started somewhat late (around 9:00 am) and I had to reach this shelter before 12:30. It's a good spot for a short break, before starting the final ascent to the summit.
