2. Ilishyan River Village Ski Resort
⏰ Open: December 2**
The ski resort has 10 pistes, of which 8 are for beginner, intermediate and beginner skiers.
In December, the South Korean snow resorts began to open, and people had less experience of the South Korean snow resort! Really Mrs. So cool!! It feels like every Korean is an Olympian.
We chose Gangchon Ilhian Ski Resort because it is so close to downtown Seoul that it is only an hour and a half away by subway! Eight hours of skiing time, starting at seven o 'clock in the morning and returning home at eight o 'clock at night, the time arrangement is just right, and the small partners with cars are more convenient, and the car can be driven directly to the parking lot.
We're a little bit basic, so we didn't let the coach teach us! When we went, two elementary and one intermediate lanes had just opened, and both required a cable car ride. The primary road is very long and slow, and the novice practice will be very experiential. The intermediate road is much longer and steeper than the domestic road, and I do not know if it is the reason why the senior road is not open. The intermediate road is all kinds of Koreans who practice flowers and live, like me, who push the slope are few but super exciting! The cable car is much faster than the domestic, eight hours can play a dozen times, never play so cool.
The ski resort does not require a ticket to enter casually, but skiing is required to buy a lift ticket, and the primary trail here also needs to brush a snow card to take the lift. naver has the specific price, after the discount is very cheap! 8 hours of snow + cable car only cost 6w2, I put in the last picture.
Although it is very cheap to book directly on naver, we still bought the 7w9 package, because it includes snow suits + snow gear + subway shuttle + novice teaching, saving a lot of time to do guides and find the way! The main thing is a place to rent protective gear! This vegetable chicken without protective gear even dare not go on the primary road there is a special person to take you to rent clothes to rent snow equipment to lead the way, to tell the truth than domestic skiing are convenient hahaha.
Dinner or to treat yourself, choose 1++ roast Korean beef, set is still quite cost-effective, the quality of meat is also good, the boss will be so a lost lost Chinese, although the wife feels the best is miso soup, but the overall comfort and satisfaction!
3. Daming Vivaldi Ski Resort
⏰ Open: 26 December
The harsh winter is coming, and recently there was a special fire for one item!

4. Kunjiam Resort Ski Resort
⏰ Open: December 38
Mention the name of Kunyan pool, presumably the small partners should be no stranger! However, what Xiaobian is going to introduce today is not that horror movie, but a holiday resort located in Seoul, South Korea - Kunyan Pool Resort.
Kunjiam Resort combines ecological rivers with 50,000 arboretum to create a fresh and pure natural ecology, becoming the largest North American style resort in the South Korean capital area.

More than 40 minutes drive from downtown Seoul, perfect for day trip! There is a special escalator for beginners, which is suitable for novice babies to practice! There are seven runs, including one training track, one beginner, three intermediate and two advanced. Here you can see the sea shows, dining options, and hot springs can soak oh!
Jisan Ski Resort in Icheon, Gyeonggi Province is only a 40min drive from Gangnam, Seoul, and offers free circular buses from Seoul for skiers.
Jiesan Forest Ski Resort is about 1.5 hours away from Seoul, and there is no stress in the day round trip, suitable for those who want to ski and travel; There are a total of 7 pistes, and the official website of the comment area has Chinese transportation methods and price lists for the reference of partners who go by themselves.
I booked a one-day tour with Chinese guide and bus pick-up, including snow gear, snow suit and cable car, Zhishan is not required tickets oh, belongs to the free open park, if you do not want to ski to sightseeing can also
The trip is basically set out at 9 o 'clock, after the tour guide will help rent equipment and remind notes, and then start double board teaching, basic and skating can not participate in the board, 17 o 'clock return
Personally feel that even if you can ski, the language and do not understand the facilities or choose to follow the group, although the itinerary is fixed, but save a lot of time to explore by yourself
A few considerations ⚠️
1️⃣ Helmet, mask, gloves are not included in the gear
Helmet and mirror are rented separately, the price is 1w; Gloves to buy, the price is 1w-1.5w range, it is best to bring; And don't forget snow socks and face guards
2️⃣ The price is reasonable, there are many choices, English is not very good there, the restaurant has self-service a la carte machine, both Chinese and English; Supermarket sells instant noodles, hot water door can pick up
3️⃣ locker is 500 coins, next to the change machine, a locker for clothes and personal belongings, the other after the snow shoes to put shoes, thousands of millions of things must be ready to lock, otherwise a 500🪙 gone!
4️⃣ lock skis grid is also 500 once, South Korea throw skis penalty is a lot, for the sake of insurance when eating rest or lock a lock, don't lose the big
5️⃣ There are more people in the morning to change their equipment, but less snow good people, quickly solve the battle and hurry to snow, the snow is not so good in the afternoon out of the sun, you can rest to eat and drink coffee, the second floor cafe to see the scenery
But the snow field is not wrong, few people, the cable car queue and skiing are in order, the toilet toilet has a heating ring, the equipment is very clean, the shoes are very dry, the maintenance is very good, the rental of snowshoes snowboards are Salomon.
6. Deyu Mountain Resort Ski Resort
⏰ Open: 24 November
Mount Deokyu - Located in North Jeolla Province in central South Korea, because the height of the mountain is 1,614 meters, you can almost see the thick snow when you go to the top of the mountain in winter. There is a ski resort on the mountain where skiers can take the cable car to sit about 1,500 meters high and slide down. Those who want to go to the top can continue to climb more than 100 meters high here.
If you want to experience Hokkaido in Korea, you can come here. The snow is very beautiful.
The 6.1-kilometer-long ski slope, with a peak of 1,520 meters above sea level, is moderately difficult and caters for beginning and intermediate skiers.
7. Pyeongchang Phoenix Island Ski Resort
⏰ Open: 24 November
The ski resort adopts valley type slides, which are divided into primary, middle and high levels of routes. There is also a 1.2-kilometer-long beginner's run that is connected from top to bottom.
Is the skiing venue of the 2018 Winter Olympics, the family suite can live in several people, the ground heating is super hot, tableware supplies are available, but the toiletries should be taken by themselves, and basically all hotels in South Korea do not bring toiletries. You can buy your own food and cook it in your room, and we go out for a few meals and then we cook it at home. nice.
There are cafes, restaurants and supermarkets around. There are rental shops all over the place. It's very convenient.
There are all-day tickets, half-day tickets and night tickets, night tickets are the cheapest, there is a cable car to the highest peak of the high road, the basic vertical 90 degrees, I went up to see people are numb... A lot of five or six year old children follow the coach or parents on the senior road, too powerful, the primary road is my novice everywhere rolling with climbing hahaha, so don't be afraid of shame, everyone is the same rolling ~ play very happy.
8, Longping Resort ski Resort
⏰ Open: December 1st
The scene of the Korean drama "Winter Sonata" is the largest ski resort in South Korea, and often hosts the World Ski Championships and Asian Games.
Equipment: 스키 911 (snow gear + clothes + helmet = 7.5w) Because the selection is advanced, it will be expensive, and the general model may be between 1.5-2w per single item. Strongly recommend this store, provide shuttle to the store to try on clothes service, pick up our little brother is very handsome (friends said pixel version of Jin Minkui hhh). The store environment is very good, the changing room is also very clean, the clothes look very new, a lot of beautiful models.
Need to bring your own: The snow resort has a place to rent helmets, gloves. If not, you can rent it on site.
About the snow resort: the snow resort is very large, there are two areas divided into the top of the mountain and the foot of the mountain, the ticket is also needed to buy separately, this slide double board, so there has been no other slide in the novice area. Personally think that the novice slide here is not friendly to the novice, the slope is still a little steep (the novice slide of Zhishan snow resort is really friendly) and the staff here and other skiers are good and warm-hearted, friends fell and the first time to help them unload the skis, this waste is very want to save but their own difficult to protect hhh
About the accommodation (p4-5) : The accommodation is very satisfactory, a large room can sleep 4 people, with two bathrooms. The room did not have a very damp odor (the previous 웰리힐리 ski resort had a musty smell, and the experience was not very good). The price is also very cost-effective, 4 people to more cost-effective ~
🫶🏻 Recommended Index:
Snow resort: ★ ★ ★ ★ ☆ (more suitable for basic to go, it is still a little difficult for beginners, feel that this is more suitable for families to travel, many children's projects, young people are more recommended to Zhishan or high one)
Equipment rental shop: ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ (10 minutes drive from the snow field, is a female boss, feel she is very fond of foreigners, when the appointment also praised my Korean hh)
9.Welli Hilli Park Ski Resort
⏰ Open: December 2
Ski star people start to want to "do things" when it comes to winter Hey hey ~ Kimchi country's skiing atmosphere is amazing, Oni has stepped on the famous ski resorts, Welli Hilli, the closest to Seoul in Gangwon Province, have fun, the key is the ski resort wow, white and big guys can storm.

10.HIGH1 Resort Ski Resort
⏰ Open: December 1st
The High1 Resort Ski Resort has 18 runs down three hills and two official tracks for the World Cup.
- Admission: Season pass and day pass only (3 hours /4 hours /7 hours...) Same-day tickets bought the same day. The full-day ticket I bought is shown in picture 5
The price is good for me! - ski hall: Two, the highest mountain ski house, valley ski house, after buying the lifting ticket can take 1350 cable car interconnect, the cable car about 7 ~ minutes. Figure IV
The snowboard hall is relatively old and old-fashioned, and I feel that the next time I can rent the shop at the foot of the mountain and then come to the resort
Lockers: There are small lockers in the snow hall, 3,000 won for one time, not multiple times. I found the ski storage counter in valley ski house, which can cost 3,000 yuan for a whole day, which is close to the domestic locker model, but later I found that there is no storage box, which is not a big problem - Ski trails: There are not many in mid-December, but the trails are very long. Figure 2
- Accommodation: Foreigners can choose grand hotel, valley condon, hill condon, moutian condon, plaza. It's a search on naver and booking.
Hotel check in front desk will give foreigners discount coupons, buy tickets more cost-effective! - There are three shuttle buses in the resort, No. 3 is an internal single-line cycle, and No. 1 and No. 2 bus can end at gohan/sanbok station, and the arrival time will be shown on the license plate, as shown in FIG. 7
It takes about 40 minutes to drive around the whole resort
The compatibility of foreigners in the scenic spot is very general, and it is difficult to communicate smoothly in pure English. I basically communicate with half of Korean modal words and half of short English words - I will take a three-hour bus from Seoul East Bus Station to gohan Station. The bus ticket, purchased on site, costs 31,000 won. Photo 8: East Seoul Bus Terminal
gohan bus terminal I took a taxi to high1 grand hotel, the fare is 8600 won, if there is a lot of luggage, the taxi will not pick up, I may have to find the shuttle bus, but I did not find it
