Climbing Mount Halla in the Snow: A Challenging but Rewarding Experience


Are you an adventurous person looking for a unique and thrilling experience? 

If so, consider climbing Mount Halla, the tallest mountain in South Korea, to the summit of Baeknokdam. In February, when the mountain is covered in snow, the climb can be challenging, but it is also a rewarding and unforgettable experience.


I recently climbed Mount Halla and it was a journey I will never forget. The journey took a total of 12 hours, starting at 6 a.m. and ending at 6 p.m. Despite the challenges, it was one of the most exciting experiences of my life.


The snow-covered mountain was a stunning sight to see, with white snow piled up on the ground. However, the snow made the climb much more challenging, as the surface was slippery and the weather was very cold. Despite these difficulties, I was determined to reach the summit of Baeknokdam and the feeling of accomplishment when I finally made it was indescribable.


As I made my way up the mountain, I was constantly amazed by the breathtaking scenery. The snow-covered trees and rocks made the surrounding area look like a winter wonderland. Along the way, I encountered other climbers who were equally determined to reach the summit. We all encouraged each other and helped each other along the way, which made the experience even more memorable.


As I reached the summit of Baeknokdam, I was famished and couldn't wait to eat my packed lunch. I unwrapped my kimbap and took a bite, the warm and savory filling filling my mouth with flavor. I washed it down with a sip of warm ramen, the comforting broth warming me from the inside out. It was a much-needed respite from the cold and physically demanding climb, and I savored every bite. The kimbap and ramen I had for lunch were truly warm and delicious


Finally, after several hours of climbing, I reached the summit of Baeknokdam. The view from the top was simply stunning. I could see for miles and miles in all directions and the panoramic view of the surrounding area was truly breathtaking. I took some time to rest and take in the beauty of the surrounding area before beginning my descent.


The descent was equally challenging, but it was also exhilarating. I felt a sense of freedom as I made my way down the mountain, taking in the stunning scenery and feeling a sense of accomplishment for what I had just achieved.



In conclusion, climbing Mount Halla in the snow can be challenging, but it is also a truly rewarding experience. The journey will test your physical and mental abilities, but the view from the summit of Baeknokdam and the sense of accomplishment you will feel when you reach the top will make it all worth it. So, if you're looking for a unique and thrilling experience, consider climbing Mount Halla in the snow.
