A quieter south-island day built from two compatible choices, not six pins.
THE DESTINATION EDIT
SOUTHWEST · CHOOSE 1–2
A clear stream crosses flat bedrock below folding-screen cliffs and a protected subtropical evergreen forest with more than 300 plant species.
Public natural site; confirm live access conditionsNo swimming, cooking, plant collecting, wildlife capture or off-trail shortcut; follow current barriers and signsThe safest, most legible view places Daepyeong Port in the foreground and the roughly 100-metre cliff wall across the water.
Public port viewpoint; parking and cafés varyDo not trespass for a cliff-top view, block working-port access or plan around a guaranteed sunsetSEOGWIPO EDGE · CHOOSE 1–2
A small working harbour on Jeju Olle Course 7 opens toward Beomseom, Seopseom, Munseom and Saeseom without requiring the full trail.
Public harbour; nearby businesses varyGive boats and residents room, keep away from rough water and exposed rocks, and take only a short Olle section unless the 14.7 km route is your whole planMaintained cedar paths, wooden rest areas and a larger trail network make this the calmest managed-forest choice of the six.
Check the official e-ticket site for current admission and programsReservation, entry rules and program availability can change; never assume walk-in access or a therapeutic outcomeRAIN SWITCH OR SOUTHEAST · CHOOSE 1
A narrow cascade can appear on a roughly 50-metre forested cliff after sufficient recent rain in Jeju’s mountain area.
Public viewpoint; verify current path and weatherIt is usually dry. Never chase flow during severe rain, flood risk, high wind or a closed-path noticeA roughly 1.5 km fenced promenade follows basalt cliffs and pine shade with an open view across Jeju’s southern sea.
Public promenade; confirm path conditionsStay behind the fence and on the maintained path; do not enter wave-cut caves, climb rocks or copy exposed fishing positionsDESTINATION MAP

EDITOR’S NOTES
Pair Andeok Valley with Daepyeong, or Beophwan with the Healing Forest. Namwon works as a separate southeast finish; six saved pins are not one route.
Less driving, more placeOpen the live weather and path check only after recent mountain rain. If flow is uncertain or conditions are unsafe, choose Keuneong or another maintained walk.
No waterfall guaranteePorts, villages and forests still have residents, workers, booked visitors and busy periods. Keep voices down, park legally and leave access clear.
