Nature120 minGamuni Oreum
Located in Songdang-ri, Gujwa-eup, Jeju City, Gamuni Oreum is a gentle volcanic cone situated just west of Seongbul Oreum. Facing the nearby Bulgeun Oreum, its slopes are adorned with lush forests of cedar and black pine, topped by a canopy of deciduous trees. The name "Gamuni" originates from its dark appearance caused by the dense, thick forests. The horseshoe-shaped crater is home to unique wildflowers, such as white and pink pasqueflowers, and the dense woods within the crater lend the peak a mystical, sacred atmosphere. As part of a cluster of volcanic cones including Bulgeun, Guduri, and Chetmang Oreum, it is an ideal destination for hikers looking to explore multiple peaks in one trip. Nearby attractions include Mulyeongari Oreum and Buyeong Condri Club.

Located northwest of Yeonmi Village in Ora-dong, Gasaegi Oreum is a small, conical volcanic cone without a crater. Its north-south ridge is blanketed in a lush forest of dense black pine trees. According to local Feng Shui lore, the nearby Min Oreum represents a mother dog, while Gasaegi Oreum, situated just below, represents her puppy—giving rise to its local nickname. Because the landscape resembles a mother dog and her pup nestled together, the northwestern slopes have long been considered an auspicious site, symbolizing the nurturing breast of a mother dog.
Nature120 minGase Oreum
Located in Pyoseon-myeon, Gase Oreum is a horseshoe-shaped volcanic cone with a split summit. Its name, derived from the Jeju dialect word "gase" meaning "scissors," comes from its resemblance to a pair of shears. The oreum features five rocky peaks: Yeomtong Oreum, Jogeun Yeomtong, Dalmoru, Jindongsan, and Sumgolwat. However, these peaks are often hidden by dense thickets and lack formal trails, making them difficult to locate. While there are directional signs for first-time visitors, the complex terrain can easily lead to getting lost. Due to the risk of scratches from thorny bushes, wearing long pants is highly recommended. A mobile base station sits on the northern peak, while a guard post stands atop the southern peak, serving as easy landmarks for navigation. Once you reach the summit and climb to the guard post, you can enjoy a breathtaking panoramic view of the cluster of oreums in Gasi-ri.

Located in Gasiri, Pyoseon-myeon—an untouched corner of southeastern Seogwipo—this wind farm marks a transformative milestone for the village since its selection in 2009 as Korea's first community-participatory wind power project. Set within the vast plains of the Gasiri Common Pasture, the site is surrounded by stunning canola flower fields. It is situated near the famous Noksan-ro road, a premier driving route known for its breathtaking collaboration of yellow canola blossoms and cherry blossoms in spring. In the autumn evenings, the fields transform into an exotic spectacle where shimmering silver grass dances alongside the rhythmic rotation of massive wind turbines. Visitors can enjoy picturesque scenes of Jeju ponies and cattle grazing peacefully against a backdrop of towering turbines, Hallasan Mountain, and traditional stone walls. To the left of the entrance, a path leads to the Canola Flower Plaza, where you can enjoy a cup of tea at a local cafe. The view from the cafe stairs offers a charming, pastoral landscape, with even more vibrant canola fields stretching out behind the building.

Other popular choices include spicy mixed noodles (Bibim-guksu) and anchovy noodles, both known for their unique umami flavors. For those wanting to try a bit of everything, the set menu offers a great value, allowing you to enjoy both noodles and a portion of Dombe-gogi in one meal.

The name "Gasi-eomeong" means "mother-in-law" in the Jeju dialect. Originally gaining fame for its signature gimbap featuring Jeju hijiki (tot), this original branch has grown into a nationwide chain. The restaurant uses fresh, locally grown Jeju ingredients, with signature items including Gasi-eomeong Gimbap and Gimbap Lunch Boxes, as well as popular choices like Chungmu-gimbap and Hanwoo (Korean beef) Rice Cake Soup.
