Why travelers stop here
Gariwangsan Cable Car is located on Gariwangsan Mountain, which is one of the top 100 famous mountains in South Korea and successfully hosted the 2018 PyeongChang Winter Olympics.

It is easily accessible for people of all ages and those with mobility impairments, including the disabled, without inconvenience. The cable car may close early or be suspended without prior notice due to safety reasons such as weather conditions, so it is recommended to check in advance before visiting.
