Good to know

Follow a named wall route

  • The official Inwangsan wall route runs from the Site of Donuimun Gate to Changuimun Gate via Inwangsan and Yun Dong-ju Hill: 4 km, with about 2½ hours suggested for the full route.seoul

Start at Donuimun

  • The city-wall guide places the Donuimun start about two minutes on foot from Seodaemun Station Exit 4. The route ends elsewhere at Changuimun, so allow onward travel rather than assuming a loop.seoul

Expect rocky climbing

  • This is a mountain route with many exposed rock sections, not a flat neighborhood walk. The official guide lists 24-hour opening and cautions especially about winter conditions; temporary trail restrictions can still affect access.seoul
