SKI TOUR IN KOREA 7 best ski and snowboard resorts in South Korea

Yongpyong Resort




Pros : Yongpyong is great for every kind of skier. Some 28 slopes offer terrific variety. Among the various slopes, the Rainbow, Gold and Mega Green slopes are the most popular, and cover most of the three mountains overlooking the resort. As it is one of the widest slopes in Korea, beginners can worry less about crashing into other skiers. The slope is also relatively one of the easiest, as it is slanted at only 12 degrees.
Cons : Three hours drive from Seoul. Lacks in other entertainment features. But there are great adventures to be had outside the resort, with the Daegywallyeong Sheep farm and also the Hanwoo (Korean beef) village nearby.

Hi1 Resort



Pros : The purest powder in the country.
The best feature about the relatively new High1 Resort, which is abour four hours’ drive from Seoul, is the snow.
Fun fact: Kangwonland Casino, located within the resort, is the only casino in the country where Koreans are allowed to play.
Cons : the slopes are not as interesting or fun as those of Pheonix or Yongpyong, High1 has a different advantage.

Phoenix Park


Pros :  Pheonix Park offers the most extensive selection and ski/snowboard instruction for novice skiers; it also provides various practical courses for riders at any level. Many Korean universities send students for group events and ski classes as the venue is famous for its impeccable handling of large groups, and because of the accessibility of restaurants, shops and rooms, even with massive crowds.
Cons : Lower level slopes can be crowded with beginners and instructors.

Vivaldi Park



Pros  : Vivaldi Park is perhaps the most popular among the younger crowds as it lies about an hour by road from Seoul and provides free shuttle bus. Also located adjacent is Ocean World, one of the most famous water parks in Korea. Best option if you are just coming for snow-watching, not serious skiing or snowboarding.
Cons : Due to its proximity to Seoul and its young, fun clientele, it tends to get a little too crowded. If you are thinking of going during the weekends, be prepared to wait at least 30 minutes to get on the lifts.

Konjiam Resort


곤지암리조트에 대한 이미지 검색결과

Pros  : The biggest strength of Konjiam Resort is that it only admits a certain number of skiers every day, capping visitor numbers at 7,000. With this limit, the resort promises that the queues will not take more than 15 minutes.
Cons : The downside is the relatively low quality of the snow and shorter slopes, as the resort relies on artificial snow due to the warmer temperature of its locale.
Info : 540 Dowoong-ri, Docheok-myun, Gwangju City, Gyeonggi-do (경기도 광주시 도척면 도웅리 540); +82 3777 2100, www.konjiamresort.co.kr
Shuttle bus : Not provided. Take bus from Gangbyun Station, Jamsil Station, or Gangnam Station. More info…

Muju Resort



Pros  :The site of many a Korean drama. Along with Yongpyong, the Muju Deukyusan Resort is one of the biggest ski and snowboard resorts in the country, with long slopes for everyone, interesting layout and impressive facilities.
Cons  : As it is located in the relatively warmer North Jeolla Province, the resort also relies on artificial snow, which means more ice and effort while riding. It’s a three-hour drive from Seoul.
Info : San 43-15, Simgok-ri, Seolcheon-myun, Muju-gun, South Jeolla province (전북 무주군 설천면 만선로 185), +82 63 322 9000; www.mujuresort.com

Alpensia Resort



Pros  :Your favorite winter athletes will be staying here. Alpensia may be scheduled as the main resort for athletes during the 2018 Winter Olympic Games. Alpensia can be a haven for beginners and intermediates, who can practice and perfect their skills at this relatively quieter resort. The resort and the overall ambiance is quite impressive.
Cons  : The six slopes may not be as impressive for pros – take the 5-minute bus ride to nearby Yongpyoung Resort.
Info :225-3 Yongsan-ri, Daekwallyeong-myeon, Pyeongchang-gun, Gangwon-do (강원도 평창군 대관령면 용산리 225-3), +82 33 339 0000; www.ichotelsgroup.com
