The course to the summit can be challenging and can take between 4-6 hours subject to individual pace.

Highly recommended. It was good to get out of the bustle of the city for a day. This is a small employee owned company so you get excellent personal service. Kim our guide was able to tailor the trip to our needs. We are regular hikers at home but due to an injury we did not come with kit and did not want the full summit climb. Kim is very experienced and knew all the park routes so took us an ‘easy’ route on a lower peak mostly alongside mountain streams. It’s still quite steep in places so would recommend sturdy shoes and some hiking experience. Beautiful views of Seoul in the distance and a visit to a Buddhist temple were well worth it. Also talking to Kim about Korean culture, history and politics was a highlight of our trip.
Fabulous hike

We had a great hike on Bukhansan. . Kevin our guide was very nice and obliged us by taking us to Begundae Peak when the original plan was to go to a lower point. Kevin walked at a good pace but made sure we could keep up and took breaks on the way up. We all like a challenge and I found the hike not quite as difficult as I had imagined. (Although it was very hard work especially in the heat). Kevin provided water and lovely Gimbap when we reached the peak. He told us what he could about the mountain and answered our questions about SK. He was very patient and kind and was a lovely guide to have. For info: we all wore trainers. Hiking boots would have been even better but trainers were ok although there are lots of loose stones and some parts can be a bit slippery. I used a stick that I found along the way. There are lots!
Highly recommend this challenging adventure

Our guide Kim was very good and talkative so we never got bored. The climb up was quite challenging but well worth it. The views were amazing and we were exhausted by the time we were done! Highly recommended for those that can handle it.
Excellent work!

Guide was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and kind. She took us anywhere we wanted to go on the hike. She also made us a very tasty lunch and kept us involved the entire time. I've already recommended this hike to several friends.
