What to consider when walking Moguri Oreum Volcanic Cone with others

At Moguri Oreum Volcanic Cone, the slope at your chosen entrance and the return route affect your companions more than the elevation figure of 232m. With children, check the distance on entrance signs and the condition of the path, then choose a short out-and-back walk.

At Moguri Oreum Volcanic Cone, plan to observe the scenery on a daytime walk rather than explore unlit ridges at night. In rain, strong winds or weather alerts, recheck conditions at the entrance and turn back after a short permitted section if needed.
