Haenam itineraries

Duryunsan to Land's End

Morning on the Daeheungsa forest path and the cable car, tteokgalbi in town for lunch, the Land's End monorail after, and sunset from the Mihwangsa courtyard. Almost the same loop the county itself recommends.

Uldolmok and a Tea Farm Night

Day one goes west for dinosaur footprints and the Myeongnyang strait, then a Spanish-mackerel dinner and a night at a tea farm under Duryunsan. Day two is the Daeheungsa forest at dawn, Nogudang and a chicken course to finish.

Two Nights at Land's End, on to Wando

Sleep by the sea at Land's End, catch sunrise from Dosoram at dawn, pass Mihwangsa for an abalone lunch on Wando and the Gaudo suspension bridge in Gangjin, then back to a tea-farm bed. The last morning is the Duryunsan cable car.
