Seoul City Wall: from Sungnyemun Gate to Changuimun Gate
A magnificent tour along the city walls! You really go from the hustle and bustle of the city to the peace and quiet of the mountains. Be aware of the length of the hike and the mountain closing times. We had to do it in two parts because the two highest mountains are next to each other (to the north). The scenery is breathtaking!

Magnificent tour along the city ramparts!
You really go from the hustle and bustle of the city to the peace and quiet of the mountains.
Be careful though, as the hike is long and the mountain closes at a certain time.
Breathtaking scenery!
