A Perfect Day: Hiking, Delicious Food, and Good Company
A record of a perfect day! π
September 20, 2025 (Saturday) - Hiking
Start
We parked at Heungguksa Temple parking lot and, after a little wandering, started climbing Nogosan Mountain!
I chatted with someone doing a temple stay at Heungguksa, and they highly recommended it! I should definitely visit Heungguksa sometime.
The Hike
It was supposed to rain, but it was just a light drizzle? And even that stopped soon after, so it wasn't too hot, which was perfect! π
The difficulty level was medium-easy!
It was a bit slippery, so hiking shoes are a must.
We made it to the summit! Yay! π
The view of Bukhansan Mountain was amazing.
It took about 3 hours, including rest stops.
We chatted and laughed with our group, enjoying each other's company.
Walking through the forest, breathing in the phytoncides, felt like a walking meditation... and before we knew it, we were done!
Amazing Restaurant: Samhagol
It's a duck restaurant, so I went without high expectations... but wow! It was so delicious!
The duck skewers were the best! π
The duck soup was like gamjatang (pork bone potato stew). π€€
These skewers are amazing! They have a smoky flavor and are very lean because the oil is drained.
I was so impressed that I kept taking pictures even as we were leaving! π
What about the Cafe?
The cafe's name was something Mill... I can't quite remember.
It was near Samhagol and it was also great!
So?
I went to a great place with great people,
And it was a very happy day! π₯°
