Yeongdeok Blue Road: Four Official Walking Courses

Yeongdeok Blue Road is split into four signed courses with different endpoints. Choose by distance and return transfer, not by harbour name alone. The official route guide lists these approximate walking times:

  • A · Light and Wind: Ganggu Terminal to Sunrise Park, 17.5 km / 6 hours.
  • B · Blue Snow Crab: Sunrise Park to Nam family origin village, 15.5 km / 5 hours.
  • C · Mokeun’s Reflection: Nam family origin village to Goraebul Beach, 17.5 km / 6 hours.
  • D · Deep Blue Wave: Crab Park to Ganggu Terminal, 14.1 km / 4.5 hours.

Set up the return before choosing a course

These are one-way endpoint pairs, so match the course to a bus or taxi pickup rather than assuming you will finish where you started. The official guide lists Yeongdeok Terminal at 054-732-7374, Yeonghae Terminal at 054-733-1565 and Ganggu Terminal at 054-733-4400. Taxi contacts are also listed for Yeongdeok, Ganggu, Namjeong, Chuksan and Yeonghae. Check the current course map and transport contacts on the Yeongdeok Blue Road official course page before setting off.

For an overnight, compare Yeongdeok stays against the endpoint where you expect to finish.
