VISIT JEJU

Depending on the season, the tangerine trees of this campground will greet you with plain leaves, white blossoms, or bright, orange fruit. The latter in particular during the winter harvest. 

The grounds themselves are full of classic Jeju scenery, with its basalt stone walls and gravel, which drain the area well when it rains, keeping campers dry. Additional facilities include a well-maintained in-ground pool, a 24-hour kitchen and shower room, and a kiosk, which operates from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. selling snacks and drinks. But just because it’s a campground, doesn’t mean it has to be devoid of modern technology. There is free Wi-Fi so you can keep in touch with your jealous friends back in the city. 

If you don’t own a tent, you can reserve either a four-people tent, a caravan, or even just stay in the on-site comfort of a pension. If you are the outdoorsy type, though, and have your own tent, then you can just pay the lot fee. Surrounded by nature, Hamdeok Seoubong Beach is nearby, so you can spend a pleasant day alternating between the splendid white sand beach and the green, cool forest at the campground. Give it a try!

Located in Cheongsu-ri, Hangyeong-myeon, this western location is just past Panpo-ri, and is far enough from the sea to be not too humid. You can rent a tent or if you have your own, there are lots available for up to four people. 

The in-ground pool is cool fun for kids, and the wide open grassy area is perfect for them to run and play soccer on. In addition to a campfire area, facilities such as a kitchen, refrigerator, washing machine, water purifier, microwave, and a shower room are available.

Summer vacation is certainly a great time to enjoy camping. Moguri Campground, in Seongsan-eup, is a good place for camping beginners. It is one of the few campgrounds run by Seogwipo City and the low-cost of the fees reflect this. 

A lot is as inexpensive as 2,000 to 3,000 won per person. There is a playground, a rock-climbing wall, an inline skating rink, rope bridge and, of course, a large open grassy area. Given the proximity to a forest-covered volcanic cone, or oreum, cooking with firewood is prohibited, as is bringing pets. 

There is 1.2 kilometer trail you can take for short, cool strolls of the area. In essence, you can get back to nature in a peaceful, natural setting, all at a very affordable price.
