That’s what we walked today. The signboard in Gyeongju National Park told us so. But that was the only bit in English, and Google is not being helpful.
On the signboard, the king is in a chariot. We couldn’t see that working. We were up and down hill on a woodland walk that closely resembled one we might have had in the Ariège, or England, or …. lots of places. Rocky, stony, full of little streams and trees, trees, trees.
Except… there were dozens of little acid-green frogs darting ahead of us as we crossed the streams. Chipmunks zoomed up and down trees. I saw a sinuous and speedy watersnake
And we sweated. How we sweated. We only walked eight km.there and back from the Yongyeonpokpo Falls, which are not in anyone’s Top Ten ‘must see’ waterfalls, though they’re nicely restful. And we were soaked. And utterly exhausted.
Next time we’ll emulate King Sinmoon and take a chariot.
From Pyrenees to Pennines 
I hate sweating. Usually, I envy you when you describe a walk but this one . . . ? Not so much.

It was hard work. But the frogs were fun. And the chipmunks. We don’t have either. Not like those, anyway.

Oh dear. Hope it was worth all that effort.

On balance yes. One of those things that improves when remembered from a distance!

Wonderful! Not many chipmunks and acid green frogs in Wensleydale!

No, nor watersnakes. Nor humidity.

I love walking in rain forest- it’s the noise! So very tantalising if you can identify what’s making it; we often heard gibbons but never saw one.

Sadly, it wasn’t rainforest. Just good old English woodland really. The wildlife was great, but this was quite simply a super-humid day.

Fabulous! I’d love to see the wildlife though I’m not so keen on high humidity. Perhaps a sedan chair’s the answer – if you can find a couple of bearers?

I can’t see anyone being that keen I must admit!
