#igidae

Que pateo, pero que genial. Esta entrada va dedicada a uno de los paseos más agradables que hice por Busán. Fui la primera vez con Sungyeon y desde el primer momento ya supe que volvería con Belén.

El parque de Igidae es uno de los parques de los cabos de la ciudad y consiste en un paseo que recorre por la costa más o menos abrupta. Son unas dos horas de camino hasta que llegas al final pero volvería sin pensarmelo dos veces.

My friend, Justin, and I decided to welcome monsoon season with a simple hike around Igidae Park (이기대 도시자연공원). Maybe this is more of a “national park” than a “park” because it’s much bigger than I remember. Last time I went, I had a taxi drop me off by the ocean, and it didn’t involve much walking but there were gorgeous up-close views of the waves. 

This time we took the bus and were just straight up hiking/walking on some trails along the coastline. Because it was foggy, we just saw a bunch of trees and very little ocean. There was some incline and stairs, but the weather was cool and the trail is well-maintained. 

The signage was confusing to me (as it always is) but everyone I asked for help was really nice. If you walk for 2-1/2 to 3 hours, you can combine this hike with Busan’s Skywalk, a see-through glass bridge built above the sea and cliffs.
