Posted on 28th April 202328th April 2023by Lou Brierley

One of the best viewpoints over Busan and further afield the Geumjeongsan Hike is well worth doing if you’ve got some time to kill whilst visiting one of the coolest cities in South Korea.

Geumjeongsanseong Fortress Hike, Busan

Posted on 27th April 202327th April 2023by Lou Brierley

Ever fancied walking the oldest fortress walls in Korea, well on the Geumjeongsanseong Fortress hike, you can! 18 km of old temple walls along a ridgeline high above Busan sounded good enough for me to attempt this 10-mile point-to-point trail. With a history dating back to the 1500s and with the most incredible views over […]

The Weekly #021 – Getting High on an Island

Posted on 25th April 202325th April 2023by Lou Brierley

Getting high on an Island wasn’t really something I had envisioned for the week, but sometimes you’ve just got to go with it, right? By getting high, I obviously mean reaching the highest point in South Korea by climbing Hallasan. The tallest point/volcano in South Korea. The Island of Jeju is absolutely beautiful and only […]

Oedolgae Cliff Walk might be one of the most unexpected walks in the whole of South Korea.

Penycloddiau Circular – Clwydians, Wales

Posted on 21st April 202321st April 2023by Lou Brierley

If there’s one hike I’ve done more than any other, it’s the Penycloddiau loop in the Clywdians, North Wales. Yes, I’ve done it more times than any route in Snowdonia, and any route in Norway. Why? It’s relatively low-level, it’s beautiful, accessible and usually has no other humans. A quick, and relatively easy loop that’s […]

Hallasan – South Korea’s Highest Point

Posted on 20th April 202320th April 2023by Lou Brierley

There’s something quite appealing about climbing to the highest point of any country you visit. I have said before, and I’ll stand by it still, often the highest point in the country isn’t the best viewpoint. Often the viewpoint that LOOKS at the highest point is the better option if you’re hiking for views only. […]
