When Departing from Seoul
Choose your transport hub first: Donghae Station
Travel from Seoul or Cheongnyangni Station on a train stopping at Donghae Station.
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.
Mureung Valley
- 01
Suggested Vehicle Access · Advance Arrangements Required
Donghae Station → Mureung Valley ticketing and trail entrance
Look up local buses, or use a taxi
Distinguish access to the valley entrance from the hike itself. A long hike such as the one to Beteulbawi Rock is not automatically included.
Mureung Byeolyucheonji
- 01
Suggested Vehicle Access · Advance Arrangements Required
Donghae Station → Mureung Byeolyucheonji visitor entrance
Look up local buses, or use a taxi
This is a separate facility from Mureung Valley. Check its parking, tickets and internal transport separately and arrange a vehicle between the two places.
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 valley walk and activities at Byeolyucheonji have different operations and tickets. Do not squeeze a long hike and activities in before the same return train.
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 Donghae 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.
