The hike will start at Changuimun Gate in the village of Buamdong. We will get a local bus from Gyeongbokgung Station. We can finish the hike at the stamp station near Samsung Medical Center (You can get a stamp map there) or for anyone who wants to carry on we can walk through the city another 30 or so minutes and finish at Sungnyemun Gate near Namdaemun/Seoul Station. If you already have a map for the Seoul Inner Wall bring it along.
Route grading: 2+ (1=easy to 4=very difficult). This walk begins following the wall mostly on steps and some trail. After we reach the summit, it is a gradual downhill with a little bit of up and down and a small section that requires you to use ropes.
