Paektu, Sacred Mountain of Korea













Paektu, the ancestral mountain of the Korean nation and sacred mountain of the Korean revolution, is 2 750 m above sea level, and its name originated from the snow covering its summit all year round. 

The scenery of the highest mountain in Korea, counted first among the six celebrated mountains in Korea, is spectacular as it consists of a series of peaks surrounding Lake Chon on its summit. The natural environment of the mountain developed from a number of volcano eruptions is very unique. The winter scenery is particularly wonderful.
