Huirisan Pine Tree National Recreational Forest (국립 희리산해송자연휴양림)

Surrounded by majestic pine trees, Huirisan Mountain boasts an outstanding landscape; there is a reservoir at the foot of the mountain. Upon climbing to the top of the mountain, visitor can overlook the scenic West Sea. There are also numerous attractions near Huirisan: Chunjangdae Beach, Geumgang River Banks, and Hansan Mosi Town (“Mosi” referring to “Ramie,” the predominant fabric used for traditional Korean clothing)

The top of the mountain (329 m in height) is called Munsubong Peak. To the northwest of the Huirisan Pine Tree National Recreational Forest is Saindae. Legend goes that four generals used to play there. Indeed, there is a cliff (140 m in height) just below Saindae where they were believed to do chin-ups. Naturally, people call the area Teokgeorijang (Chin-up Spot). Traces of Munsusa Temple still remain below Munsubong Peak although it was said to have been destroyed by a huge number of bedbugs. 500 meters from Munsubong Peak to the south, horse riding trails of the four generals are dotted along the ridge; Malttongbawi Rock (Horse Dung Rock), resembling horse droppings, is 500 meters from the peak to the southeast.

Below Munsubong Peak are four large peaks where the four generals lived and 100 small rocks beneath them that were home to low ranking men commanded by the generals. Because of their unique shapes, those rocks form a scenic sight while hiking in Huirisan Mountain.
