The reward for the 6-7km trek (or climb) one way is reaching the summit of Birobong Peak at about 1430 metres above sea level. There is a stone monument here that marks the summit as well as some seats for you to rest and admire the sceneries (too bad it was cloudy when I was there).

Sobaeksan National Park is a very big park, and there are other trails branching from Birobong Peak, some of which will take more than 1 day so do check and plan your trip properly. For the trek up Birobong Peak and back, it will take 5-7 hours for an average person.

Personally, I enjoyed this trek or climb at a leisurely pace. The cool and dry autumn weather makes it much easier. Lovely day trip out of Danyang town.
