Magoksa Natural Pine Forest Trail (마곡사 천연송림욕장)
Magoksa-ro, Sagok-myeon, Gongju-si, Chungcheongnam-do
Located on Taehwasan Mountain at the head temple of the 6th District of the Jogye Order of Korean Buddhism, this trail is a dedicated "forest bathing" destination within the historic, millennium-old Magoksa Temple grounds. As the mountain is primarily comprised of Korean Red Pines, the trail serves as a wellness course where visitors can fully enjoy the therapeutic benefits of a red pine forest, which is widely considered the finest environment for forest bathing. The hiking route spans 5 kilometers along the ridges of Taehwasan Mountain, weaving through stands of 5- to 10-year-old red pines that surround the temple. The total trekking time is approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes. Starting from the entrance of Eunjeogam Hermitage in front of the main Daeungjeon Hall, the trail loops around the temple grounds, passing through Hwalinbong Peak (423 m) and Nabalbong Peak (417 m). With its gentle slopes, the course is well-suited for all ages, including children and the elderly.
Magoksa Temple [UNESCO World Heritage] (마곡사 [유네스코 세계문화유산])
966 Magoksa-ro, Sagok-myeon, Gongju-si, Chungcheongnam-do
Situated at the foot of Taehwasan Mountain in Gongju, Magoksa Temple was established in 640 during the reign of Queen Seondeok of the Silla dynasty. It was originally founded as a grand temple, but only few major halls and gates remain preserved today along with several significant cultural relics and heritages. The temple site was used as a refuge site during times of war, and it survived the the Imjin War (1592-1598) and the Korean War (1950-1953).
Maguryeong Pass / Gochiryeong Pass (마구령/고치령)
[Maguryeong Pass] Imgok-ri, Buseok-myeon, Yeongju-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do [Gochiryeong Pass] 1522-4 Yeongdan-ro, Dansan-myeon, Yeongju-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do
Maguryeong Pass and Gochiryeong Pass stand as iconic hills of Sobaeksan Mountain. They are known for their historical significance as rugged pathways where people and goods traversed during the Goryeo and Joseon dynasties. Situated on the easternmost edge of Sobaeksan Mountain, Maguryeong Pass derives its name from its function: "Magu" meaning "harness" and "Ryeong" meaning "pass" in Korean, highlighting its past as a route where merchants commonly traveled on horseback. Meanwhile, Gochiryeong Pass served as a vital transport link to the Gwandong and Hoseo regions. In the Silla dynasty, this pass was earmarked for palace construction at the base of the hill, which led to its name "Gochiryeong" – "Go" indicating "old", "Chi" representing "hill", and "Ryeong" meaning "pass" in Korean – effectively translating to "old hill pass".

Maisan Hwaeomgul Cave (마이산 화엄굴)
367, Maisannam-ro, Jinan-gun, Jeonbuk-do
Maisan Mountain has two major peaks made of sedimentary rocks; these peaks are said to be ‘couple peaks’ and cannot be found anywhere else. Sut Maibong (alt. 667 meters) is said to be the male peak while the slightly larger Am Maibong (alt. 673 meters) is deemed the female peak. In the early Joseon period the mountain was named ‘Sokgeumsan,’ but began to be called ‘Maisan’ after the 12th year of King Taejong, who commented that the two peaks resembled horse ears (‘maisan’ meaning ‘horse ears’). All along Maisan Mountain, visitors will find small crater-like rock cavities that are formed by prolonged weathering. These unique geological features, called ‘tafoni,’ are of great academic value. Inside Hwaeomgul Cave, visitors can observe medicinal water that flows up from underground all throughout the year. It is widely believed that once you drink the water, especially on the days of the Spring and Autumn Equinox, you will soon have a son and be blessed by the mountain spirit. Even today, many women who have difficulty conceiving visit the mountain to pray to the mountain spirits for their heart’s desire—the gift of a child. The region in which Maisan is located is the birthplace of many talented people and national heroes, which some say is proof of the blessings of the mountain and its extremely powerful spirit.
Maisan Mountain Tafoni Terrain (마이산 타포니지형)
255 Maisan-ro, Jinan-eup, Jinan-gun, Jeonbuk-do
Tafoni terrain refer to clusters of small caves resembling bombarded peaks. On the southern slope of Ammaibong Peak in Maisan Mountain, various-shaped honeycomb caves are widely spread out. These formations are believed to have been formed during the 4th Ice Age and subsequently shaped by frost action. Such caves are commonly found along coastlines.
Maisan Provincial Park (마이산도립공원)
126-3, Danyang-ri, Jinan-eup, Jinan-gun, Jeonbuk-do
Maisan Provincial Park is a rocky mountain composed of two great peaks, Ammaibong (687.4 meters) and Sumaibong (681.1 meters), and dozens of smaller peaks. These peaks have a variety of names depending on the season. In spring, the mountain provides sweeping panoramic views for its cherry blossoms, and cosmos and silver grass in fall. The Eunsusa Temple, Geumdangsa Temple, and Tapsa Temple with its 80 stone pagodas are all worth exploring, enhancing the experience of the area.
