One of the best ways to enjoy the stunning scenery of Jeju Island is by walking one of its well-planned and well-maintained trails. The Olle trails not only help you stay active but also allow you to connect deeply with Jeju’s natural beauty and local culture.
Currently, there are 27 Olle trail routes, each varying in length and difficulty. This allows visitors to choose a course that suits their fitness level and schedule. The shortest trail takes approximately an hour to complete, while the longest can take up to eight hours. Each course is clearly marked with signs and guiding flags, making it easy even for first-time visitors to navigate the path.
Pick a trail that suits you best, and explore the island’s charm at your own pace.
Many of Jeju’s most iconic attractions are located along its beautiful coastline. Here, you will find pristine beaches, dramatic cliffs, and striking volcanic hills. Since many people traditionally settled down near the sea, the coast also offers a glimpse into Jeju’s local life.
Cycling is a fantastic way to experience all of this. You can stay close to nature while covering more ground than on foot—yet still at a pace that lets you fully take it all in. While walking around the island would take weeks and driving would pass it by in a day, cycling offers the perfect-in-between: you can tour the island in anywhere from two days to a week, depending on your route and pace.
Here’s everything you need to know to begin your cycling adventure around Jeju.
