Overview

The Geumosan Skywalk is a cantilevered observation deck located on the ridge of Geumosan Mountain in Hadong-gun, Gyeongsangnam-do. It offers an expansive vantage point overlooking the Namhae archipelago and the Hallyeohaesang National Park. The structure is situated near the Geumosan Zipline landing zone, integrating into the larger Geumosan leisure complex. The floor features sections of transparent tempered glass, allowing visitors to look directly down the steep mountainside. It functions primarily as a viewing platform for the southern coastline and surrounding islands. The site is part of a regional initiative to develop adventure tourism on Geumosan Mountain.

Insider tips

Bring a windbreaker as temperatures at the mountain peak are significantly lower than at sea level.

Check visibility forecasts before ascending to ensure the coastal views are not obscured by heavy fog.

Use the dedicated deck area away from the glass floor if you suffer from vertigo.

What to avoid

Do not attempt to drive up during periods of heavy snow or extreme icing as the mountain road conditions become hazardous.

Good to know

Closed on certain Mondays for facility maintenance; operations are subject to suspension during high winds or extreme weather warnings.

Etiquette

Avoid jumping or running on the glass floor panels for safety; do not lean over the external safety railings.
