    DAY-OF PLAN

    Know the sequence before you go.

    Times from the operator are kept separate from Korea Era planning guidance.
    1. 01
      Separate the temple from the mountain route

      The active temple is listed open year-round, but hall access, services and the Juwangsan trail system are independent. Check live KNPS trail controls and choose a turnaround before treating Daejeonsa as a trailhead.

    2. 02
      Visit as a worship site

      Dress and speak quietly, yield to worshippers and ask before entering or photographing a hall, ceremony, monk, resident area or protected object.

    3. 03
      Begin only with enough return margin

      The current record gives a 15:00 warm-season and 14:00 winter mountain-entry cutoff, but the live KNPS notice controls. Do not read a cutoff as enough daylight for any chosen route.

    3. Visit flow

    1. 01
      Before travel

      Separate the temple from the mountain route

      The active temple is listed open year-round, but hall access, services and the Juwangsan trail system are independent. Check live KNPS trail controls and choose a turnaround before treating Daejeonsa as a trailhead.

    2. 02
      At the courtyard

      Visit as a worship site

      Dress and speak quietly, yield to worshippers and ask before entering or photographing a hall, ceremony, monk, resident area or protected object.

    3. 03
      Before the trail cutoff

      Begin only with enough return margin

      The current record gives a 15:00 warm-season and 14:00 winter mountain-entry cutoff, but the live KNPS notice controls. Do not read a cutoff as enough daylight for any chosen route.

    4. Traveler tips

    • Check the KNPS real-time control page even for a familiar lower-valley route.
    • Keep temple visiting time separate from the remaining daylight needed for the selected trail and return.
    • Leave recreational posing, food smells and loud audio outside worship spaces.
    • Search “대전사 경상북도 청송군 주왕산면 공원길 226” in Naver Map or Kakao Map and confirm the exact entrance and return route.
    • Hours, admission, closures and programme schedules can change; use the official source 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.
