Balwang-san, the 12th highest peak in Korea, was formerly known as ‘Barang-san’. ‘Barang’ is a pure Korean word for ‘backpack’. Perched at 870 meters above sea level, Barang-jae is a place where you can leave behind the weight of everyday life. Here, the tranquility of nature meets the elegance of traditional Korean architecture. Visitors are warmly welcomed with seasonal cuisine inspired by the beauty of Daegwallyeong. Moments of stillness bring reflection and clarity, naturally flowing into a spirit of sharing with the community. A place where staying becomes sharing. Welcome to Barang-jae.
