Dodong Mineral Spring Park provides a comfortable resting place for Ulleung residents and offers various tourist attractions for visitors to the island. It serves as a morning walking path for local residents and, along with Bongnae Waterfall, is one of the most visited spots by tourists. There is a legend that after a general who fought against the Japanese warriors died on the battlefield, his armor was buried near Dodong Mineral Spring. Over time, the buried armor rusted and the flowing iron water became the Dodong Mineral Spring. The park also features various tourist facilities such as the Dokdo Museum and the Dokdo Observatory Cable Car.

The spring at Dodong Mineral Spring Park contains minerals known as effective treatments for anemia, digestive disorders, and skin ailments. Legend says the armor of a general who died in war was buried here and the metal infused water is what flows in this spring. Rice cooked with this spring water turns light blue.

Dodong Coastal Trail leads to Jeodong Coastal Trail, and together, they form Haengnam Coastal Trail. Dodong Coastal Trail corresponds to section 1 of Ulleung Haedam-gil (2.8km) and is also known as the Coastal Trail 34 course. There is a walking trail with a rainbow bridge and LED streetlights with the geopark logo, making it an attractive geological site among tourists. Various geologic structures formed by early volcanic activity on Ulleungdo Island can be observed on the Dodong Coastal Trail. There is a gradual decrease in the age of rock formations as you go from Dodong Port to Dodong Lighthouse. Basaltic lava flows, Clastic sedimentary rocks (rocks made up of pieces transported by landslides), ignimbrite (a volcanic rock formed by the consolidation of material deposited by pyroclastic flows), and trachyte (an extrusive igneous rock) can be found from bottom to top.

섬의 아름다움을 체험하는 가장 좋은 방법 중 하나는 섬 일대를 유람하는 유람선 여행이다. 바다 위에서 울릉도를 일주하며 아름다운 자연경관과 숨겨진 매력을 볼 수 있다. 울릉도 섬 일주 유람선은 주로 도동항에서 출발해서 울릉도 본섬 주변을 한 바퀴 둘러보는 관광 코스이다. 섬 안에서 보는 풍경도 멋지지만, 바다 위에서 바라보는 울릉도는 또 다른 절경을 선사한다. 해상 관광은 울릉도 여행에서 빼놓을 수 없는 필수 코스이니 꼭 경험해 보길 추천한다.
