Reviews of Olle Trail
Jason Kurtis
Beautiful scenic walk. It’s a bit hard to find the starting point but once you do the trail is easy to follow. Beware that there are limited bathroom facilities for the first few miles. Once you reach the end you’ll need to find a way back to your car and the bus near the port is infrequent. The trail itself is mostly easy and flat.

Nice trail, I made the river valley. This is a trail around the island, in several segments. Well indicated way. A made only a short part, it should require a week at least.

So we are walking the Jeju olle and finished route 9 here, we missed this start/end point as there are quite a lot of campers etc in the area and it was raining quite hard, so we had to backtrack, not our favorite experience but the person in the info center was nice and they had a stamp in 5e office so the rain didn't make stamping impossible
Esther Yates
Great trail just under 16km. Not too difficult but quite alot of stairs if you have bad knees. Beautiful views all the way !

Olle Trail Route 10 is a very nice one. It goes along the Yongmeori coast, and you can see some women making fresh seafood on rocks. They look kind of like seashells or lobster claws. There is a famous sight, Sanbanshan near route 10. If you have enough time, make a trip to go to the temple.
