bring some water on a hot day! But the view uptop is breathtaking. Lots of tourists. Recommend to go in the morning (It's called the SUNRISE PEAK)

We went in the afternoon on a hot spring day. The climb was steep but that didn't deter anyone based on the hordes of tourists - local and foreign on the trail. The crater was covered in green grass and looked like a giant round football pitch. Whilst the crater was beautiful, the view would have been more spectacular from... More

It was drizzling the first time we went up to the sunrise peak. Climb was pretty easy and doable and view at the top was fantastic. Went to the bottom of the attraction, near the sea where there is a sign 'women diver performance.' There is a small eatery there run by female divers I supposed. It sells pretty decent... More

This is one of the seven wonders of the world and true to the description. The sights seen when reaching the crater at the top are breathtaking. The cliffs are amazing, jutting out of the ocean in straight black pillons of volcanic rock.

Beautiful site next to East Sea. Crowded but enjoy the climb with the others.

It was drizzling when we attempted the climb, so we didn't quite get the best view. But worth the climb, especially if you can catch the sunrise. Should be an easy climb for (generally fit) young adults. My 65 year old parents managed to reach the top too after a few rests. Remember to check out the black beach and... More

The view from Seongsan Ilchubong so magnificent. No words can desribe. You just have to go there to see it yourself.

Pro's: Beautiful Area, short hike to the crater rim with really nice views of the island and coast! Also, take advantage of the path that goes along the coast and down to the black sand/rock beach. Con's: Very crowded on nice days

Known as the Seongsan Sunrise Peak, a UNESCO Heritage Site, this place is a must-go for tourists visiting Jeju Island. If you are the deep sleeper tourist and cannot manage to catch the sunrise, still head down for a paranoiac view of the ocean. This place reminds me a little of Melbourne's Great Ocean Road but it's nowhere as magnificent... More
