What to consider when walking Dansan with others

At Dansan, the slope at your chosen entrance and the return route affect your companions more than the elevation figure of 158m. With children, check the distance on entrance signs and the condition of the path, then choose a point for a short out-and-back walk.

Dansan’s slopes and rocky terrain can make the descent more demanding when wet. Wear supportive shoes, and avoid leaving designated paths to take photos on the slopes.
