Gyeryongsan National Park

Gyeryongsan National Park extends over 64 square kilometers of mountainous terrain, with peaks reaching heights of 845 meters above sea level.

The park received its national designation in 1968, becoming the second established national park in South Korea after careful environmental assessment.

Three Buddhist temples within the park boundaries, Donghaksa, Gapsa, and Sinwonsa, maintain centuries of religious practices and architectural traditions.

The network of marked hiking trails throughout the park connects major attractions, with information centers and rest facilities positioned at regular intervals.

The park maintains populations of 1,121 plant species and 1,867 insect species, including eleven endangered animal species such as otters and martens.
