Odaesan Forest

#summervacay Odaesan National Park’s forest is chef’s kiss if you’re looking for those peaceful, “I could live here forever” vibes. From the moment you step into the trail, it’s just trees for days, tall, quiet, and absolutely magical. The air feels cleaner, the birds sound happier, and suddenly your phone doesn’t matter anymore (but yeah, I still took like 200 photos). The trails are super well-maintained and not too hard, so it’s more of a chill wander than a hardcore hike, perfect for when you want to move but also vibe out. There’s something really calming about walking alongside the streams and hearing water gurgle as you go. Kinda feels like forest therapy, tbh. There are little temples and bridges tucked into the scenery too, which just adds to the whole magical energy. Pack some snacks, wear comfy shoes, and take your time, this place is made for slow exploration. Would 100% come back for the fall colors or maybe even a snowy walk.
