#summervacay If you’re looking for a chill, less-crowded hike in Seoraksan, Heullimgol is a total win. It’s not one of the main touristy trails, which is honestly the best part. The path winds through peaceful forest, with little streams, birdsong, and zero city noise. It's got that secret nature escape energy that makes you forget everything else.
The trail itself is moderate, not a walk in the park, but totally doable if you’ve got decent shoes and some water. You’ll hit a few rocky parts and slopes, but nothing too wild. The vibe? Calm, refreshing, and super green, especially in late spring and early summer.
There aren’t any huge crowds or loud tour groups here, just pure nature. Take it slow, breathe in that mountain air, and let the forest do its thing. Honestly, it’s the perfect low-key adventure. Totally worth it.
