Top of Inwangsan mountain, great views over Seoul. Lot of stairs and bit of scramble, not much running possible. Barely no one there in the mornings.

Before 2005 it was an abandoned waterway, now beautifully landscaped and covered in greenery. Almost 11 km long in total!

Namsan Observatory

Highlight • Viewpoint

It is possible to hike in light clothing, but the weather can be hot after early summer, so hiking in spring and fall is recommended.

Great view of Seoul, especially in the evening. You can even see the city from the bathroom :-)
