As you glide across the calm waters, admire beautiful islands and rocky landscapes that create a perfect backdrop for relaxing and taking scenic photos. This tranquil cruise ride offers a refreshing start to your Chungju adventure.
Next, head to the Cheongpung Cable Car, where you’ll enjoy free time that includes a round-trip ride on the scenic cable car. Ride up at your own pace and take in breathtaking panoramic views from the mountaintop observatory. Relax with a drink at the hilltop café while soaking in the scenery, or descend and have lunch at one of the restaurants located at the cable car station at your own expenses.
The highlight of the day awaits at Hwalok Cave. Learn about the history of the cave through informative exhibits, enjoy vibrant light installations, and in a special zone, enjoy a rare kayak experience inside the cave, paddling through underground waterways surrounded by stalactites and striking rock formations. This unique adventure offers a quiet yet thrilling way to explore the cave’s hidden beauty.
As the day winds down, relax on your return to Seoul with unforgettable memories of Chungju's nature, adventure, and beauty.
