Hiking in Seoul, Korea visiting Mount Bukhansan National Park (북한산국립공원) Travel Video Transcript:
We're exploring a part of Seoul (서울) we've never been to before. We've never really been to the north of Seoul (서울) and we've never done a serious hike in Seoul so we're really excited to be going off to Bukhansan Mountain (북한산국립공원) today. Bukhansan (북한산). And we're going to reach it by metro right now. And our metro is here so let's run.
Alright, so we are transferring from line number two, the green line, to line number one, the blue line, and that is going to take us to our final stop. So let's do this.
Alright, so we have arrived at the station. This is Dobongsan (도봉산). And we're actually doing it the shortest loop we can find. I think it is supposed to take an hour and a half.
So what do we have to do before we can hike up the mountain? Um, we're going to get me some pancakes because I'm already grumpy and cold and dreading this so I need food to warm me up.
And what are those pancakes called? Hotteok (호떡). Hotteok (호떡). And they are filled with honey and cinnamon and they're going to be good.
We're just about to go up Bukhansan National Park (북한산국립공원) and what is fascinating about this park here is that it is seventy eight kilometers wide and there is a number of different hiking paths.
Actually if you look over here you can see lots to choose from. Different paths and it shows you the kilometers and the distance it should take in terms of hours. How much time it should take. Yeah.
And so yeah there is a lot to choose from. We're doing an easy route today. Yes, and what does Bukhansan (북한산) mean? It means the mountain north of the Han River.
Last time I swear. So we were thinking of doing this one. Jaunbong (자운봉). But it turns out it is intermediate advanced with expert portions. Originally we were going to do Uiam (우이암) anyways.
Update from the hike. So something we didn't necessarily anticipate is how many cool Buddhist temples we'd be passing by.
So we only have two hundred more meters to go but these are likely going to be the steepest. Let's get at it.
And we're also seeing a lot of mountain kitties nearby temples and also just on random sections of the trail.
So what do you think? We're almost there. Oh man, we've been crawling like on our hands and knees to get up here. Like that last stretch was really rough. Yeah. But the views. Spectacular.
So we've finished the hike. Now we're down at ground level and we're starving. So we're going for the quintessential Korean meal that you always have when you hike. Which is pajeon (파전) haemul pajeon (해물파전) the seafood Korean pancake. So we're just waiting for that to be prepared.
And for dessert we're going in for. We had to get a little more food for the road so we got one more Hotteok (호떡) and this one is a lot different from the one I had in the morning.
Thoughts on the hike? Thoughts on the hike I thought it was a great hike I can see why they would label it as a beginners hike in terms of the actual path. Yeah. But in terms of the hike would you say a return trip it is about a three hour journey? It took us three hours. It took us about three hours. You're looking at more of a full day outing. More videos from Korea soon. Every Monday. Bye.
This is part of our Travel in South Korea video series showcasing Korean food, Korean culture and Korean cuisine.

You never hike alone in South Korea, always plenty of others too, I like that.
Enjoyed it guys! My wife and I hiked that park 2 years ago while living in Goyang. Fond memories of getting lost, scrambling over rocks, and getting passed by "mature" Koreans. Keep up the good work!
Thank you! LOL, that basically describes exactly what we experienced ;) It was so much fun though and such a nice escape from Seoul.
Beautiful views. I truly enjoy those nature themed videos. Good job, guys!
Thank you! We'll have to try and make more of these when we can.
thank you for taking us on this amazing hike! I enjoyed it a lot, it makes me feel like I'm there lol
Thank you! We highly recommend hiking in Korea for anybody who visits :)
wow!.....what a beautiful place!...love the fall colors!
Thank you! It is our favorite time to be visiting.
makguli and pa jeon is great combination always ..&
Forever! :)
By chance, I saw a video of Samuel and Audrey.
It was so impressive to see the two people hiking on Bukhansan Mountain and eating pancakes(pajeon) and makgeolli.
Hotteok is my favorite snack and I enjoy it every winter season. ^^
The sad thing is that the Korean subtitles are very much different from what you say.
Maybe I think you used Google Translation because you don't know Korean well.
Anyway, it's all good and nice to see you trying.
You must be living in Canada now, right?
I hope you will continue to love Korea and introduce Korea to many people.
I will also have a deep interest in Canada and try to know many things.
Thank you very much! That hike was one of my favorite things I did while staying in Seoul. We just recently did a newer Korean series from Seoul, Busan and Daegu if you'd like to check it out: czcams.com/video/_sMsw6vHvxE/video.html
@@samuelandaudrey really? my home town is Daegu.
I am looking forward to newer series. I will check soon.
Wow looks amazing guys. Good effort guys. So many beautiful colours. Sam give Audrey's shoes back. hehehehe
Haha, I'm now getting back at him. I've been wearing his new pair of Crocs, which are so comfortable, and meanwhile he's stuck with my running shoes. Oh to be the same shoe size... ;)
hahaha nice. I think you won there. :)
you guys rock!!! love your vids. love how you both love food and the way ya'll describe the tastes! Food, my number 1 passion, combined with travel... my other number 1!! Thanks Audrey and Sam. Two thumbs waaay up!!
Woohoo, foodies unite! Those are our two passions as well, though it's hard to say which is first! ;)
stunningly beautiful park. another great video, guys.
Thank you! I don't think a lot of people realize how easy it is to be out in nature from Seoul center.
beautiful weather and place
Thank you! Totally agree :)
you took the elderly route. lol
wonderful video...loved the large maple-tree-like leaves, and of course, the excellent food vists. will watch more later, keep filming guys. best steve from Leadville, colorado
Thank you very much! Hiking is really an underrated thing to do in Korea especially for visitors.
북한산 좋아요
한국에는 멋진 하이킹이 있고 내년 봄에 하이킹을 할 수 있기를 바랍니다.
Oh my goodness how gorgeous! Looks like a wonderful place and cold LOL
Thank you! It sure did get chilly in Korea but moving around outside oddly enough helped us to warm up ;)
Ya udah trimakasih ,sukses selalu untuk anda.
Just subscribed! I feel so relaxed while watching your videos - the way I want to feel whenever I'm traveling. I hope you visit my country soon! I'd be glad to tour you around the Philippines. :)
Welcome! Thank you very much! We plan to visit the Philippines next year for the 1st time :)
Yeah that makgoli, when you first taste it, you think to yourself, hey this isn't as strong as I thought, then several drinks later you get plastered! LOL haemul pa-geon and soon-du-bu combo! Sam, if you are giving that high of a praise on the haemul pageon, man I want that! now you got me salivating! I was looking for the name of the restaurant on the wall or somewhere but only saw a quick look at the menu and the name of the makgeoli posted on the wall, lol. Love the line "Christmas in a Cup!" LOL
Thank you! I know what you mean with regards to the Makgoli! LOL, It deceptively sneaks up on you ;) Oh that place was so good. I regret not jotting down the name of it. I don't think we would have survived that hike without the great food/drink at the end ;)
Wow that leaf was huge!
It sure was!
I also don't understand why but Korean elder people are pretty serious about being equipped with quality gears. I think Canadian company such as Mountain Equipment can make a big success if they open a store in Seoul.
Hahaha...they'd likely do better in Korea than in Canada ;) My first and second travel backpack were from Mountain Equipment.
Samuel and Audrey I love their backpacks. I'm still keeping one that I bought 10 years ago.
Great vids...thanks for sharing guys... love the part where audrey is sliding =)
guys thanks for the awesome blogs! are you guys opening a hodduk store anytime soon? :)
Thanks! LOL, that could be a future business venture ;)
한국에서 좋은 경험 많이 하세요~^^
고맙습니다! 확실히 좋은 경험이었습니다. 우리는 한국에서 하이킹을 좋아합니다. 많은 아름다운 장소를 방문하십시오.
I will travel that place.
Great!! 👍
Thanks! Cool to hear. It is a lovely hike.
That looks like fun! I'd love to visit there when I go on vacation in Seoul this Fall.
That sounds great. I highly recommend it. It makes a nice escape from the bustle of the city.
wonderful report
Thank you! We sure had a great time and some much needed exercise :)
nice video...
Thank you!
You guys I am thinking of coming to South Korea during the spring and I would love to join you for a hike if you have me :D I am planning to hike Seoraksan, Bukhansan, Taebaeksan, Songnisan, Jirisan and Naejangsan if possible in one month :D maybe it is a bit ambitious hahhaha
That is awesome to hear! Sounds like a great place. I'm not exactly sure when we'll be back to Korea but if we're around at the same time we'd be up for a hike.
Lovely, I am going to do this on coming Weekend. got motivated after watching your video. cheers.
That is great to hear! It is a beautiful place to go hiking!
@@samuelandaudrey thank you, dear.
fairly new viewer of your channel and trying to catch up on all your korea videos. Do you guys consider Korea your home base in between your world travels?
Thank you! We don't currently have a base but we've spent two separate one month stints in Seoul this year and plan to be back in Korea again next year for a couple more months.
Well shot video 👏
Thanks! We loved this hike.
착해 보여서 매우 맘에 듭니다.착한 맘은 우주도 바꿀 수 있으니 정진 하시소. 구독은 아니하고 좋아요는 누르고 갑니다.
고맙습니다! 그것은 하이킹을 가기에 좋은 곳입니다.
Great video! Planning on hiking down there next week and wondering what were the actual places you ate in this video. If they are still open hope to hit them up :D
THanks! That is cool you'll do the hike soon. To be honest we forget the name of the place but it is literally at the entrance of the mountain coming from the station. You'll notice a few of these restaurants and they all pretty much serve the same dishes. I'd choose a place that looks busy with local hikers.
Thanks for the response! That specific bindaetteok just looked to good haha
Hello Samuel and Audrey, which dates did you make this video? Me and my girlfriend are hoping to catch the fall foliage and do some hiking, but we can’t make it to Seoul till mid to late November. Cheers
Thanks! That is cool to hear. If I remember correctly we did this in early November. I think going a bit later in the month will still be a great experience.
Cheers...much appreciated. Enjoy your travels and keep making these videos!
¿Cuándo visitan Nepal y, como consecuencia, el monte Everest? Sería más que extraordinario que pudieran dedicarle tantas visitas como lo están haciendo con Corea del Sur.
Nos gustaría conocer Nepal. Por el moment tenemos planes de viajar a India en Febrero, y de ahi estamos considerando Sri Lanka, Nepal o Tibet ya que están cerquita. Vamos a ver!
I got a travel guide to Southkorea and really wanna visit Seoul . I hiked in Austria already but never in Korea , I think it will be a great experience
That is really cool to hear!
All praises to Allah for creating great scenery
Gooood
Thank you!!!
Love the video!
Thank you!
Hi. May i know what date you went to Korea?
We did this hike in the fall. I believe early November. Late Sept to October and late April to the end of May are our favorite times to visit Korea. Such nice weather. Warm but not hot.
where is colder, Korea or Canada???
Most parts of Canada are colder than Korea but not everywhere. A cold day in Korea when it is say -10 or -15 is bone chilling cold.
i like how audrey preferred the unhealthier pancake lol
Of course! 😋
Hi! May I know the exact date you went to bukhansan? Thanks
It would have been in early November.
It looked like Korean seafood pizza.
-40 degrees C. = -40 degrees F.
Yeah, the seafood pajeon in Korea is just awesome. This place did an amazing job. Easily one of the best (if not) I've ever had.
Hey! Approximately how long did you guys take for the whole hike?
It was a solid half day of hiking, but there are so many different circuits to choose from. Everything is labelled according to length and level of difficulty so you can always decide how much you want to hike once you get there.
How long it takes to hike
I would give yourself 3-4 hours to do it leisurely.
해물파전....막걸리^^
Looks like a real great adventure! Love your video Samuel and Audrey! You should join Thriver next year, too and experience some real cultural immersion. It's a way to travel and grow around the world. You may visit their website thriverworld.com to know more about it. :)
Thank you!

LAST COMMENT HIHIHII
Thanks1
except for the cat, no other wildlife animals seen???
Yeah, that was it but we did see quite a few birds though.
then it is a very boring hike at the near winter climate
