Namsan and Seoul Tower from Ingwansanby Ewingjr98
From Ingwansan you have a wonderful view of downtown Seoul and the Blue House (where the president lives). Because of the strategic location overlooking the Presidential Mansion, cameras are not allowed on the mountain. As you hike, you will notice the barbed wire and frequent armed guards. The majority of the main trail is paved with concrete or stone steps making for an easy climb. The peak is 340 meters above sea level.
To get to Ingwansan, take Subway Line 3 to Gyeonbokgung Station and walk west toward Sajik Park. Just before the park, turn right on the paved road (Ingwansan-gil). After about 20 minutes you will see trails to the left toward the mountain top.
