We decided to do a hiking day at Mt Wonjeoksan, the largest mountain relatively near Abby's apartment. We took a taxi over to the area where the mountain is located. We just told the taxi driver the mountain we wanted to climb. He dropped us off and the only thing we had to go by was a large map of the area in Korean. After wandering around a bit and asking a family that was walking by, we hesitantly started walking on a road that was going up a mountain. After walking about 20 minutes, we came to a building where a woman told us that we were in the wrong spot. She gave us directions to the trail...although they were a bit vague. We used her directions and started walking up another road. After a little bit, we arrived at some Buddhist temples and a sign for the hiking trail we were looking for. We hiked for about 3.5 hours. The trail was icy and muddy so it felt very rewarding to get to the top of the mountain.
