Saryeoni Forest Path, failed to get there...

 I found this place by looking at a map... This was after looking over the coast in Jeju therefore this time I wanted to try a forest inland... But I chose a wrong season, time... when the road or path was covered with snow.... You'd better go there from April...

1	Saryeoni Forest Path

 I don't know the meaning of Saryeoni(사려니), which is the name of the forest path. According to a encyclopedia, it means "surrounding something with hands so that it cannot be spread". The summit of the path is surrounded by a stones, which is the reason why it has the name. But it's not official.

 Even the island is not that big and wide, don't under-estimate the time to be taken while travelling. But I haven't considered there are many spots to visit... So I wouldn't be able to see everything there... I suggest to hurry up... starting early in the morning...

 Saryeoni forest path is far from Saryeoni parking lot, which is free. But the path was covered with snow... And there is no good point for parking on the road and the way...

 The picture below is taken on a golf site, which was covered all with snow... 

 

 I drove the load between the parking lot and the entrance several times... to find a good place to park.... And I had to park on the parking lot. And I asked other travellers about the path... they told me that they had to return because of the snow.... And I decided to give up.

2	Alternative...

 : Instead of going there, I decided to walk around the forest just beside of the paved road, which was not bad...

 : The forest was full of the tall trees like the pictures above...
