| Seorak-dong, Sokcho-si. Gangwon-do |
| Description |
The falling water of the loud and magnificent Biryong Waterfall looks very much
like dragons flying up towards the sky, which is why it was named Biryong
Waterfall (flying dragon). There is a relatively wide path leading to Biryong
Waterfall, through a bamboo forest, making it a very nice place to hike. From
Biryonggyo Bridge, which is located in the lower reaches of Cheonbuldong Valley,
called Ssangcheon, walk past it for about 30 minutes to the left, and you will
see the Yukdam Waterfall, made up of 6 water falls and a deep pond. 300 m past
this area (about a 20 minute walk), you can see the Biryong Waterfall between
the narrow and rugged ravine. Also, if you follow the Towanggol, up a steep,
rocky path, there is a huge, 3-tiered waterfall called Towangseong Waterfall,
but due to the extremely dangerous path leading to it, it is barred to the
public.
