Private Hiking tour to Bukhansan Peak(Baegundae: 836.5m) with Mountain Expert

2.Private Hiking tour to Bukhansan Peak(Baegundae: 836.5m) with Mountain Expert

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 113 reviews · from $168Best guided

You’ll hike Bukhansan National Park with a private mountain guide such as Kim, Jimmy, Chance, or Minho. Your guide adjusts the route and pace to your fitness, from a moderate temple trail to the steep granite climb toward Baegundae Peak. Hotel pickup and drop-off are included, and some routes include a simple Korean lunch.

“Mr. Jimmy Nam was excellent! He suggested the trails we should take based on our desires and physical agility. I was a wonderful morning and afternoon hiking then lunch. If you have the opportunity for a private hike, I recommend. With group hikes you are at the mercy of the best hiker or the slowest hiker.”
