anyone else just like 오름 more than hallasan?

Yes, 오름 is better on a day off, legs need rest too. Very windy on top so bring a jacket, it gets cold fast after sunset

I must admit I have rather given up on Hallasan myself; one ascent was quite enough for a lifetime. Do you go up 새별오름 in autumn, when the silver grass is out, or is that rather too crowded for your liking? I find the car park alone a test of patience

Hallasan is just a long staircase, honestly. Start early and it's fine, the legs excuse is only half accepted the wind on 오름 is better though, that part is true

오름 sounds so cute, like a little mountain nickname (笑)
