Route 09 · Jeju
Mythic Landscape Route
Eight stops on Jeju: lava tubes, tuff cones, a columnar joint cliff and the southern coast. Marado needs a ferry, so plan that one separately.
Taken in the published order the route covers about 248 km, and its two furthest stops sit 73 km apart. Both are straight-line figures, so real driving is longer.
The longest single hop is Marado Island Nature Reserve to Jeju Manjanggul Lava Tube at 66 km. The shortest is Yongmeori Coast in Sagye-ri to Sanbangsan Mountain in Seogwipo, 0.9 km apart.
Grouped so that nearby stops share a day, it works out at roughly two days of driving.
Five of the eight stops charge admission. The rest are free to enter, though some sit inside parks that charge separately.
On three of the eight stops the stamp sits in a museum or information centre rather than at the heritage site, which matters if you turn up outside opening hours.
