A Walk through Daehangno, Naksan Park and the Seoul City Wall

Visit in This Order

• Marronnier Park — Start around the park and Daehangno; individual performances are not included.
• Naksan Park — Decide how far to climb according to slopes, stairs and weather.
• Seoul City Wall, Naksan Section — Walk only permitted sections and decide your return route before dark.

How Much Walking Is Involved in Each Section?

The times and distances below are map-route records checked in the source. Allow separate time for visits, queues and meals. Actual walking distance changes if your starting or finishing point changes.

Opening Hours and Bookings

The official Seoul City Wall guide lists the Naksan section as open 24 hours. Construction, weather and safety restrictions and on-site guidance take priority. This does not mean exhibition halls, theaters or cafés operate all night or that the whole route is lit.

Ordinary outdoor walks do not require booking. Wall tours, events and performances are separate and are not included in the default itinerary.

This suggests half a day including part of the wall and breaks. Actual time varies with your visiting pace and queues.
