Oksunbong, Mountain summit in North Chungcheong, South Korea.
Oksunbong rises to an elevation of 286 meters, featuring natural vegetation and rock formations across its slopes in North Chungcheong province.
The mountain area served as a refuge for Catholic communities during the religious persecution of 1801, when pottery sellers maintained local commerce.
Teacher Lee Hwang named the mountain Oksunbong due to its resemblance to bamboo shoots, reflecting traditional Korean botanical observations.
Multiple hiking trails lead to the summit from Sangcheon-ri, with parking facilities and rest areas available for visitors throughout the year.
Two distinct rock formations, Gangseondae and Yijodae, stand near the summit, representing a traditional Korean tale of separated partners.
