Namwon itineraries

A Day at Gwanghallu

Walk the whole Chunhyang story in one loop and finish with a bowl of loach soup. One taxi from the station, then everything is on foot.

Chunhyang to Jirisan

Day one is literature and the town; day two you drive over Jeongnyeongchi pass to Baemsagol and Silsangsa. It follows the city's own two-day route.

Fortress, Falls, Baraebong

Three faces of Namwon in turn: the fortress and graves in town, the gorge at Jucheon, the Unbong highlands. Nights end in a traditional sauna.
