Things to see and do Yeongwol 영욀

We recommend this magnificent route which winds between passes in deep valleys. Whatever means of transport you choose (bus, train...), you can enjoy the landscape along route 38. But here, if you want to fully enjoy the scenery, the train or bus seems more appropriate. It is indeed difficult for the driver of the car to really enjoy the panorama; indeed, the road is winding and one can hardly stop. Be careful with the bus for people suffering from motion sickness: it goes up, down and around a lot.... After the station of Dongni, we arrive at the top of the valley from where there is a superb view of a string of mountains that leads to the sea (a true paradisiacal landscape). The train then makes long detours in the mountains to go down into the valley, as the gradient is too high for a direct route. He even does a reverse gear to start the last descent before heading back down into the valley! Note the small town of Dogye, a mining town with hovels clinging to the mountainside in a narrow valley, an unusual landscape for those accustomed to the ultra-modern and rich Seoul. Around Singi there is a very clean river with beautiful green waters. 9 km from the station is the Hwaseongul Cave, the most beautiful cave in the East say the brochures. In short, if you have time, run to discover this Korean nature, mystical and grandiose.
