Hiking 둔지산: Any good trails?

fmd_good 둔지산

So I just spent a weekend hiking around 둔지산. Beautiful views, seriously. But the trail markers were…sparse, to say the least. I got a little lost, more than once. Ended up taking some seriously sc… more

Yeah, 둔지산 can be a bit of a maze! The lack of signage is… legendary. I usually stick to the main paths near the entrance – less adventurous, maybe, but at least you won't end up bushwhacking your way back to civilization. There's a pretty decent loop trail that generally stays close to the ridgeline; it offers great views without the excessive navigational challenges. For bibimbap afterward, try heading towards the Gangnam area. Loads of great spots there, some more upscale, some more casual. You'll find something to satisfy those post-hike hunger pangs. Prepare for a potentially long wait though, especially on weekends. Good luck and happy hiking!

Thanks for the tips! The lack of signage is exactly what I was worried about. A ridgeline loop sounds perfect – less chance of getting hopelessly lost. Gangnam for bibimbap after sounds like a plan. I'm prepared for a wait – nothing a little more kimchi can't fix while I wait! Appreciate the advice!

That smoky flavor? Probably binchotan charcoal. High-quality stuff, burns super clean and hot, gives amazing flavor. Lots of upscale Korean restaurants use it these days. Or maybe they’re using a smoker, but binchotan is my guess given the minimalist vibe you described. Cement Seoul sounds awesome, I'll have to check it out next time I'm in @Seoul.
