    TRAVELER FAQ

    Answers worth checking before you leave.

    3. Visit flow

    1. 01
      Before leaving the port

      Match the season to the last admission

      April–October is currently 08:00–19:00 with final admission 18:00; November–March is 09:00–18:00 with final admission 17:00.

    2. 02
      At the entrance

      Confirm ticket, weather and complete route

      Pay the current category fare, read any rain, sunrise, sunset, rockfall or maintenance control and ask which waterfall approach is open.

    3. 03
      Before the final cutoff

      Protect the uphill and transport return

      The admission time is not the time to begin. Allow for the forest approach, wet surfaces, stops, toilets and the current bus, taxi or vehicle return.

    4. Traveler tips

    • Arrive well before final admission because the forest approach and return take longer than a waterfall photo stop.
    • Use shoes suitable for wet incline and leave immediately for thunder, falling debris, flooding or official barriers.
    • Keep a lower-elevation harbour plan if weather closes the route rather than waiting at the entrance for reopening.
    • Search “봉래폭포 경상북도 울릉군 울릉읍 도동리” in Naver Map or Kakao Map and confirm the exact entrance and return route.
    • Recheck weather, trail or garden closures, last entry and seasonal conditions before departure.
    • The audited coordinate identifies the named destination, but the final gate, parking area and step-free entrance still need a live route check.
