So I'm going here in a couple of weeks but can't find much info about getting there. Has anyone ever been there and if so can they answer these questions.

1.Is it better to go to Daejeon or Jeonju and catch an onward bus from there as it is halfway between both cities????

2.How often are the buses????

3.What is the accomodation like around the mountain?????

Nobody in Jeollabukdo or the jeonju area can help me???????

Come on guys, i know all of you don't live in Seoul or do get out of there.

Any information would be helpful

I've never been, but I've heard it's easier to get there via Daejon than Jeonju. As for places to stay, I can't help you there either. One thing I've been told ... stay away on Sundays, as everyone crowds to get their picture taken on that suspension bridge they've got there.

I'm not really much help, am I? Sorry.

From where I live it is easier to get to Jeonju but I'll look into Daejeon.

Also, the day I'm going is a public holiday (it is on a Sunday so not a long weekend), so I'm hoping this might actually stop a lot of people from going due to other activities on that day (especially with the older halmonis and halobojis).

I heard it is a smaller but still awesome climb so i'm looking foward to it.

Thanks anyway, indytrucks.

Haha, I've got a story about that, visiting Daedunsan park. At the time I was living and working out in the boonies by the sea, a village of 3,000 people. I'd seen a postcard somewhere of the suspension bridge and thought it would take some guts to walk that bridge, indeed. Well I said I was going out there one weekend and two kids from school said they'd like to go, and asked their parents. They were thirteen year old guys, two of them, who ended up coming along. So we took the busses it took from Kwangju to Taejon, then to the park. We stayed in Taejon the night before going to the park the next day. We happened to get a yogwon which had video players in the rooms and a shelf of free movies. The teens were in one room and I was in another.
The next day one of them looked haggard and frazzled like he'd been up all night, but being 13 he picked up by noon after something to eat. His friend said that though he himself slept, the sleepless one had been up ALL night watching videos. He apparently got some of the discreetly loving love motel videos in the mix. And when we were at the Taejon bus terminal later the one who'd slept used some of the spending money his parents had given him to buy a girly mag from one of the newstalls. Funny guys, man.
Anyway we got to the park and, it being Winter, the suspension bridge and trail was not at all crowded and for that reason, as well as it being incredibly frosty-scenic with bracing crisp air and views, I'd recommend going then. We went right up to the top and the windchill was enough to make us head back down pretty quick. But being from chilly Saskatchewan it didn't bother me much and reminded me of 'homechill' You've seen the suspension bridge I think, but I hadn't seen, as well, the 'step ladder' which goes up after that. The best part about that is going down, because when you turn facing outwards and go down on it holding the rails it's 'like flying'. All you see is the view ahead of you, which is precipitous and it's like, 'aaaaahh, I'm an eeeeeagle!!!'
