Gasi Oreum

Located in Dongil-ri, Daejeong-eup, Seogwipo, Gasi Oreum takes its name from the abundance of thorn trees (water oak) that have grown across the landscape since ancient times. The summit features a horseshoe-shaped crater opening toward the southwest. While the southeastern slope is steep, the northwestern side is relatively gentle, making the hike to the top easy and accessible. With well-maintained trails, the summit offers breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding Moseulpo Oreum and the Daejeong-eup area. The path to the peak is lined with farm roads and lush forests of mixed trees, interspersed with species such as Japanese wax trees and silverberry. Some slopes also feature cultivated farmland stretching halfway up the hillsides. For visitors using navigation, parking is available near the cattle shed on the southwest side; alternatively, parking is available on the opposite side by searching for Dongil-ri, Daejeong-eup.
