When Departing from Seoul
Choose your transport hub first: Jamsil Station
Travel from your accommodation in Seoul to Jamsil Station (Lines 2 and 8), then choose the facility you will enter.
First plan how to get from your accommodation to the actual departure station or terminal. For trains, check the departure and arrival stations and whether transfers are needed. For buses, choose the exact terminal as well as the destination city. Seoul, Yongsan, Cheongnyangni and Suseo are different stations.
Travel to Each Place’s Entrance
Places in the same selected group do not necessarily share entrances, tickets or opening hours. The options below explain how to reach each place you choose; they are not an itinerary for visiting every place in order.
Seoul Sky
- 01
Suggested Access Based on Location · Check Directions Before Departure
Jamsil Station → Seoul Sky ticketing and entrance floor in Lotte World Tower
Subway → walk
For the observatory, go to its designated entrance floor in the tower building. This differs from the theme park gate.
Lotte World
- 01
Suggested Access Based on Location · Check Directions Before Departure
Jamsil Station → Lotte World Adventure entrance gate
Subway → walk
Check the gate and operating date on your theme park ticket. Look at the actual option to see whether observatory admission is bundled with it.
Seokchon Lake
- 01
Suggested Access Based on Location · Check Directions Before Departure
Jamsil Station → Seokchon Lake walking path entrance
Subway → walk
Choose whether to start at the east or west lake. A walk around the lake does not include theme park admission.
Map links search for locations by name. They are not directions checked for exact entrance coordinates or actual services on your travel date. Enter your departure point, destination and chosen transport in a map app to check the route again.
Prepare for Booking, Access Restrictions and the Final Leg
- The three facilities in this selected group have separate admission and operating conditions.
For sections using taxis or booked vehicles, discuss round-trip availability, pickup locations and charges such as waiting fees and tolls with the provider before departure. A vehicle is not guaranteed to be immediately available outside railway stations or at remote attractions. If you choose local buses, check the exact stops, direction and return services too.
Plan Your Return to Seoul First
First decide how to return from your last attraction to Jamsil Station. If you leave through a different gate, port or trail from the one you entered, check again whether you can use the same vehicle pickup point.
- Allow time to reach the actual pickup location after sightseeing, descending from a hike or disembarking.
- Make separate arrangements for local buses or booked vehicles and your long-distance return journey. If tickets are sold out, compare other services or an overnight stay.
- Check whether subway or bus connections to your accommodation will still be running after you arrive in Seoul.
When your day includes a boat trip, hike or evening visit, leave a buffer before plans that are difficult to change, such as an international flight the next day.
