Sokgol Resort Area sits by the sea in Hogeun-dong, next to Seogwipo Girls' High School, and offers a dense forest, abundant water, and a deep valley running down to the coast. Walking trails wind through the forest, with benches and an octagonal pavilion for resting, and from the cool valley you can view Seogwipo's sea and Beomseom islet, lined with tall palm trees that give the area an exotic feel. The water is shallow in places where children can play, and a small stone bridge crosses the lower stream. Long known mainly to Seogwipo residents rather than tourists, it is famous in summer for soaking your feet in the cool water while eating baeksuk (whole chicken soup) served by a village group. Sokgol also connects to Jeju Olle Trail Course 7, making it a good spot for a seaside walk.
