Introduction

Although it is a low mountain with an elevation of 156 meters, beyond the mountain you can see a beautiful coastal cliff with Elephant Rock and Mongdol Beach full of rounded pebbles formed by wave erosion. You can hear the crackling sound of the pebbles hitting the waves and enjoy both the rocks and the beach bordering the sea. Hwanggeumsan, famous for Mongdol Beach and Elephant Rock, is the 7th of the 9 Scenic Spots of Seosan, featuring a forest trail blended with pine trees and wildflowers and a coastline made up of pebbles that create a splendid view. The sound of waves crashing against the coastal cliffs frees the once sealed village, and the beautiful sunset at Mongdol Beach has established itself as a landmark of Seosan frequently visited by professional photographers.
