Seonjaryeong Pass선자령

At a glance

Seonjaryeong is a peak on the Baekdudaegan ridge, on the line between Pyeongchang's Daegwallyeong-myeon and Gangneung's Seongsan-myeon. Before the Daegwallyeong road existed, this was the way over the mountains to the east coast. The summit looks out over Odaesan, Gyebangsan, Balwangsan and Hwangbyeongsan. Most hikers come in winter, when snow and frost coat the trees along the ridge.
