Detailed itinerary

1

Oedolgae, the starting point of Jeju Olle Trail Course 7, is a stone pillar that rises 20m high from the sea. Standing alone on the sea, it was named ‘Oedolgae’. It is also called ‘General Stone’ and ‘Grandma Rock’, and there is a story that General Choi Yeong decorated this rock like a general when fighting against the Yuan Dynasty and made the enemy self-destruct. For the origin of the name 'Grandma Rock', read the legend below. Not only the visible rocks, but also the life of Jeju people waiting for the people of the sea can be seen.
These stone pillars are believed to have been created during a volcanic eruption. A chimney-shaped stone pillar in which the surrounding rocks are eroded by waves and only such strong rocks remain is called a sea stack in scientific terms. Pine trees grow naturally on the top of Oedolgae, giving a picturesque impression. Depending on the viewing direction, it shows a different appearance, and you can feel the beauty of nature.

Stop 2

Jeongbang Falls is one of the Jejudo Island’s top 3 falls, along with Cheonjiyeon Falls and Cheonjeyeon Falls. It is the only fall in Korea where water falls directly into the sea. The fall is 23m high and the two streams of waterfall that fall down the black cliff create a thrilling sound and a wonderful view. Moreover, the steep cliffs and old pine trees around the fall create a picturesque view, and this view was chosen as one of Ten Scenic Sights of Yeongju with the name of “Jeongbanghapok.” It is said that the words ‘Seobulgwacha’ are engraved on the cliffs of Jeongbang Falls.According to legends, a man named Seobul came to the island in search of an elixir plant on the orders of China’s Qin Shu Huangdi a long time ago. Unable to find the elixir plant, he headed west to return to China, and became captivated by the site of Jeongbang Falls, leading to him writing “Seobulgwacha’ on the cliff. However, these words have yet to be found in real life.

The columnar joints near the coast in the eastern Jungmun Tourist Complex, where the waves breaks and dark red hexagonal stones make up tall layers, is considered a gift of nature and was designated as Natural Monument No. 443 (12/27/04). If you stand in front of the joints you can see the waves hitting the stones and breaking into white bubbles, which feels as if they carry the sad stories of stone carvers, and the scenery is incredible as when the waves are turbulent they reach a height of about 20m. The place is becoming ever more popular with tourists as they walk around and look at the incredible scenery along with the fresh scent of the sea

4

The Yongmeori Coast got its name because the beach looks like a dragon that is jumping into the ocean with its head raised (“Yong” means dragon and “Meori” means head in Korean).Yongmeori is a sandstone bed created by layers of sand that have been deposited for tens of millions of years. The mysterious scenery of the coast is enough to make anyone who witnesses it exclaim in wonder.At the foot of the coast is a Hamel Monument. This monument was established by the Embassy of the Netherlands and the Korean Foundation on April 1st, 1980 to strengthen the diplomatic ties between Korean and the Netherlands, as well as to commemorate the dedication and hard work of Hendrick Hamel

Stop 5

Osulloc Tea Museum, which is adjacent to the Seogwang tea field in Jeju, is the first tea museum in Korea opened in 2001 by AMOREPACIFIC to introduce and widely disseminate tea and Korean traditional tea culture. It is a cultural space that harmonizes East and West, tradition and modernity, and consists of a tea museum, a nature-friendly rest area, and a cafe space where you can enjoy delicious and diverse menus using tea.

​The temple was named after the spring water that gushes out from spring to fall and the pond with medicinal water that flows all year round. It boasts the largest main hall in the East, and it became famous when Daejeokgwangjeon was built in 1996 after a large-scale Buddhist ceremony was held under Hyein, who was appointed as the chief priest in 1981. The 29m-tall Daejeokgwangjeon is a concrete building in the style of early Joseon Buddhist architecture, with one underground floor and five above-ground floors. In front of the main hall hangs an 18-ton bell with inscriptions and pictures emphasizing filial piety. The temple houses the memorial tablets of four Joseon Dynasty kings: King Munjong, Queen Hyeondeok, Prince Yeongchin, and Lady Yi Bangja
