More details

Getting to the start

None (mountainous areas difficult to access by public transportation)

Departure point: Jukryeong Rest Area/Jukryeong Parking Lot. The official site could not be accessed due to an SSL error, so I checked through web search (Trail Runners, Namu Wiki).

Free parking available at Jukryeong parking lot for 1,500 cars. The date of the '12th Sobaeksan Jukryeong~Gukmangbong Round Trip Trail Running' was held on 2026-06-21. Due to the nature of the competition in remote mountainous areas, there appears to be no public transportation access information.

Transit card

No dedicated transit card system serves this mountain venue; Sobaeksan's Jungnyeong Pass sits on the Danyang (Chungbuk)-Yeongju (Gyeongbuk) border and is accessed almost entirely by car, with limited local bus service. Runners typically drive or taxi in from Danyang or Yeongju's train/bus terminals.

READY TO RUN

From race morning to after the finish.

Your start time, fuel and bag drop.
Know them ahead and the run feels easier.

June marks the start of midday heat.

Prepare breathable clothing, a hat, and sunscreen, and save your pace for later.

The distance is short and not overly demanding, but avoid going out too hard at the start with pace, and finishing should be well within reach.
