Geombongsan Mountain (alt. 681.6 m) poses an exciting challenge for mountain bike enthusiasts. The mountain ridge is covered with varied flower species including royal azaleas, iris, polygala, and violets. The summit of Geombongsan Mountain offers views of the boundless sea to the east, the sharply rising Eungbongsan Mountain (alt. 998.5 m) to the south, and the slightly taller Sageumsan Mountain (alt. 1,092 m) to the west. The mountain is only a 5 to 10-minute-drive from Imwon Beach, which makes a great summer vacation destination.
