Why go

Jiksopokpo Falls is one of Korea's most photographed waterfalls, located in Byeonsan-bando National Park as part of the Jeonbuk West Coast Geopark. The falls drop about 30 meters into a deep emerald pool, set within steep cliffs and forested valleys. For travelers serious about Korean waterfall destinations and willing to engage with a moderate hike, Jiksopokpo is one of the strongest single picks. Best in early summer when water flow is at peak.
