Introduction

It won't be a thousand miles, only something over 700 kilometres, which is just under 500 miles. It's not an epic trek that requires months of planning and the ability to carry one's house on one's back. Nor does it call for staying in the woods through rain or shine, or worse, fighting off bears and coming back to civilization for a resupply and a shower. It mostly looks to be just a nice walk along the coast over a few hills that Koreans think are mountains. And hopefully there will be some nice views here and there. But the Haeparang (or Blue Sea) Trail up the east coast of South Korea looks to be interesting, and I would do it. I have been on bits of the trail before, but I have a desire for a project, and this trail should take me a good chunk of the year to complete, on weekends. This will be the story of that project.
