DAY-OF PLAN
Daedunsan spans administrative boundaries. The Nonsan approach is the Surak Valley hiking district; do not follow a Wanju cable-car itinerary to this pin.
The city estimates about 3 hours 30 minutes and 4 hours 30 minutes respectively. The summit is roughly two hours from Surak Valley in normal guidance, before descent and stops.
Heavy rain, ice, heat, wildfire prevention and maintenance can close or slow the route. A free admission listing is not a live trail-open report.
MAKE A HALF-DAY OF IT
