제주 올레 10

Jeju

Big landscapes & history. Focus a shorter visit on the Sagye–Songaksan area, or use the official map for the full Hwasun–Moseulpo route. Coastal hills and exposed sections make this different from a flat beach walk. Yongmeori Coast is a separate optional visit with its own access restrictions.

Check services to Hwasun, Sagye or Songaksan for your chosen start. If walking one way, return from Moseulpo by bus or taxi; confirm the last service rather than relying on an old timetable.
