Path of Monk Wonhyo

The Path of Monk Wonhyo is located near Odoam Hermitage of Palgongsan, Daegu’s most famous mountain. The path is two kilometers long and, starting from the parking lot, passes by Odoam Hermitage and ends at Haneul Jeongwon (Sky Garden). The pine forest trail, which begins just after the parking lot, offers respite for body and mind through its trees and the chirping of mountain birds. After passing Odoam Hermitage, visitors will see a steep flight of stairs in the shade of fir trees. At the top of the stairs, a gently upward-sloping path begins that welcomes all. At the end of the path is Sky Garden, which, being at the summit, offers a sweeping view of Daegu. Odoam Hermitage, Wonhyogul Cave, and Jwaseondae are locations famous for being where General Kim Yu-sin prayed for unification of the three kingdoms (Silla, Baekje, Goguryeo) and where the monk Wonhyo reached nirvana.
