Gyeongsangnam-do

Hwangmaesan County Park

Hwangmaesan County Park is a designated county-level park in Hapcheon, Gyeongsangnam-do, set on Mt. Hwangmaesan and famously known as one of Korea's premier azalea-blooming destinations during the late-spring (May) bloom season — when the mountain slopes turn brilliant pink across vast stretches of azalea-covered upland meadows. The park combines marked hiking trails through the azalea-and-grass slopes, multiple summit-area viewing decks, and supporting natural-tourism infrastructure. Best timed precisely to the late-April-through-May azalea peak; outside that window the visual draw is substantially weaker.
