A treeless, grass-covered dome you can pick out from miles away. It's a steep 20–30 minute puff from the car park, but the top opens up the upland pastures toward Hallasan, the west coast and even Biyangdo. In October and November the whole hill is silver pampas grass that ripples in the low evening light. It's very windy up there, so hang on to your hat.
