Mt Gwanggyo

Recently Harper and I have been exploring Mt Gwanggyo – a hiking park that borders our city of Suwon. There are many different paths to choose from, however the one thing they all have in common is the steep ascent.


This morning we set off on what we though would be about a 90 minute hike. When we reached the top though we took a bit of a wrong turn and instead of coming back down the same side of the mountain, we followed a path down the other side of the mountain and into the neighbouring city of Yong-in. When we got off the mountain- about 2 and a half hours after we started - we found a small store where they called a taxi for us - $10 and about 15 minutes later we were finally back at our starting point.

All in all it was a fun morning and we hiked some very challenging terrain. We are looking forward to going back next weekend to try out some of the other trails.
