Slow down before you arrive at Beomeosa Temple
From Beomeosa Station Exit 5 or 7, walk about five minutes to Bus 90, then slow down from the temple gate through Daeungjeon and the stone pagoda. Add only a short forest path on a first visit. The North Gate and Godangbong are mountain hikes, not a casual continuation of temple sightseeing, and require separate weather, equipment, and daylight planning.
