2025 Gyeryong-si Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in July)

I'm coloring 90% of the domestic map, and I finally went to Gyeryong, the only place in Chungcheong Province that I haven't been to. It's a place called Ipam Reservoir, which is a good driving course near Daejeon. The metasequoia-lined road is beautiful, and there's a barbecue place that feels like a glamping site, so there were a lot of people who came out for a family outing during the Lunar New Year holiday. The winter reservoir scenery, which was half ice and half water, was also really beautiful. 🏞 - - 📍Ipam Reservoir 🧭Ipam-ri, Duma-myeon, Gyeryong-si, Chungcheongnam-do #WinterTravel#ChungnamTravel#Gyeryong

#summervacay If you're thinking about hitting up Gyeryongsan for a hike, do it. Seriously. I went last weekend and it was way better than I expected. The trails are super well-marked, and there's a mix of chill paths and steeper stuff if you're feeling ambitious. I started from the Donghaksa side, and the forest vibes there? Unreal. Like walking through a fairytale, especially with the mist hanging around the trees. The views from the top are totally worth the climb, wide open mountain scenes that make you wanna just sit and stare. Also, the temples tucked along the way? Beautiful and peaceful, perfect little rest spots. Bring snacks, water, and good shoes. And go early if you want it a bit quieter. Overall, it’s not the toughest hike ever, but it still gives you that solid “I did something cool” feeling. Would 100% go again, Gyeryongsan hits that sweet spot between adventure and zen.

#aprilblooms Seongbukdong Forest Bathing Area is located a little outside of Daejeon, about a 10-minute drive past Bangdong Reservoir, nestled at the foot of Gyeryong Mountain. There's a spacious parking lot at the entrance, making it convenient to visit by car. At the entrance, I noticed a forest library operated by the forest bathing area. However, a notice indicated that the contract employee for this year had their contract expired, and it wouldn't be operating until a new employee is hired next year. Why the hiring is being delayed until next year is unclear. The forest bathing area itself isn't very large. My initial plan for the day included hiking up to Baegunbong Peak in Gyeryong Mountain. The uphill trail began here. Shortly after starting, I encountered a fork in the path. Naturally, I took the direction towards Baegunbong. There was hardly anyone around, and it didn't seem like a frequently traveled hiking trail. The slope was quite steep, but I was able to ascend without too much difficulty. The vibrant green leaves of the forest were beautiful and made me feel good as I climbed. However, soon enough, swarms of gnats started to bother me. They persistently followed me, and despite waving a towel and trying to brush them off, it was a constant struggle. Ultimately, the gnats became too overwhelming, and since it was an unfamiliar path, I decided to turn back after reaching the ridge where the path to Baegunbong branched off. The descent was also plagued by the annoying gnats. Back down near the parking lot at the entrance of the forest bathing area, I decided to walk along the forest road (임도) instead. I regretted not having chosen this option from the beginning. The forest path was pleasant, and there were shaded resting spots where I could take a break. Best of all, there were no gnats! During my walk along the forest road, I even took off my mask and fully enjoyed the forest scent and fresh air before heading back. Furthermore, near the Seongbukdong Forest Bathing Area, I discovered the National Daejeon Forest Welfare Center (국립대전숲체원), operated by the Korea Forest Welfare Institute. It was my first time there, and I was surprised to find well-maintained parks, rest areas, experience facilities, accommodations, and hiking trails. I simply looked around today without any prior information, but I hope to experience the various facilities there on another visit. Overall Thoughts Seongbukdong Forest Bathing Area offers good accessibility with its parking facilities. However, my experience was somewhat marred by the unexpected nuisance of gnats on the hiking trail. On the other hand, the forest road provided a peaceful and enjoyable walk without the insects. The discovery of the nearby National Daejeon Forest Welfare Center with its diverse offerings was a pleasant surprise and makes me consider a return visit to explore it further. For those considering a visit, a leisurely walk along the forest road or a combined trip with the Forest

The cherry blossoms have already bloomed at Shinwonsa Temple, which grants everyone's wishes. It is famous as the place where Queen Seondeok prayed. Come and take a walk on a warm spring day~

#CanadaFlightEvent If you climb towards Donghaksa Temple in Gyeryongsan National Park, you will find many restaurants selling deodeok, a specialty of Gyeryongsan. Gyemyeong Restaurant sells both set meals and single items, so there are many options. If you drink grilled deodeok, acorn jelly, and deodeokdongdongju, you will feel like you are hiking. Since it is at the foot of the mountain, you can come here just to eat at a good restaurant, or you can hike and come back. If you go to Gyeryongsan, you must try deodeok dishes. #DaejeonRestaurant #Gyeryongsan #GongjuRestaurant

#HongKongAirFlightEvent #2024WishEvent #Couple #CafeRecommendation I visited Yeonriji, a large Hanok cafe in Gyeryong! It's a really large cafe with a main building and an annex~ There are not just one annex, but several! You can enjoy coffee privately with your friends in the annex.

#HongKongFlightEvent #CafeRecommendation #GyeryongCafe I visited Pascucci, a large cafe in Gyeryong, Chungnam~ I went there for the Nth time because the interior and atmosphere were so good. There are step tables where you can sit down, so it's good for visiting in a group! There are large windows, so you can heal while looking at the view.

I got on the subway at Daejeon Station, took the Daejeon city bus at Hyeonchungwon Station, and got off at the Donghaksa District of Gyeryongsan National Park... The valley after summer was covered with fresh green, and the early autumn scenery of the mountain temple was beautiful and beautiful.. It took an hour or two to walk back from Sutonggol to Donghaksa and back to Mitaam, Gwaneumam, and Munsuim. I soaked my feet in the stream overflowing in the valley... I felt like I had become a god, and it was so enjoyable.. Since there is no entrance fee to the national park, I could comfortably enjoy the fresh green and go down.. Autumn trekking... It's great.... #Hiking #Gyeryongsan National Park #Daejeon Travel

#Emotional Accommodation [Gyeryongsan Dream Pension] Location: 91 Gumodong-gil, Banpo-myeon, Gongju-si, Chungcheongnam-do If you take the bus, take bus no. 107 from Daejeon Station and get off at Park Jeong-ja Intersection. Walk for about 10 minutes to get to the accommodation! The advantages of this pension are the beautiful view of Gyeryongsan and the valley with clear water around it. Above all, there is a private swimming pool and various tube water guns, so I was really satisfied and had fun!! There is also a private barbecue area, so I enjoyed swimming and eating. You can also rent board games, so I had fun all night ㅎㅎ

It seems to be a pretty famous restaurant in Gyeryong🔥 It was my first time going to Gyeryong, and I chose this restaurant after careful consideration, but it didn't seem to have been open for long! The interior was clean and there were a lot of traces of care, so the food tasted good, but it was also comfortable, so I think it was even better😉 The budaejjigae itself was delicious, but it went perfectly with rice with a fried egg on top! It seems to be a pretty popular restaurant among the locals in Gyeryong🩵 - - 📍Adding budaejjigae 🧭140 Geumam-ro, Gyeryong-si, Chungcheongnam-do #ExcitingSummerVacation #Gyeryong
