About

Gwanmaedo is the most representative of the six Jo Islands within Dadohaehaesang National Park, known for its stunning scenery and ecological value. The island is home to a natural monument, the hubak tree, and native wind orchids (pungran) have recently been restored. Gwanho Village and Bangasum islet together form the wings of a hawk in flight, and the island's beach has been a filming location for KBS and SBS dramas. Visitors can explore the island's eight scenic spots on foot, or take a boat tour around the island to view unusual rock formations and go sea fishing.
