Muju Ski Resort Spa

Muju Resort in Muju County, North Jeolla is South Korea's largest and most scenic western ski resort, set on the slopes of Deogyusan in the national park of the same name — one of Korea's most impressive inland mountain landscapes of granite ridges, ancient temple valleys, and highland wilderness that produces some of the country's finest autumn color displays. The resort's bicarbonate mineral spring water from the Sobaek Mountain volcanic zone fills spa facilities that provide essential thermal recovery for the resort's year-round outdoor tourism clientele, complementing both the excellent winter skiing and the summer highland hiking that Deogyusan's trails offer. The combination of bicarbonate mineral bathing, winter skiing in Korea's most scenic western highland, and the proximity of the Jeolla region's celebrated mountain vegetable cuisine — Muju's gondre rice and mountain greens being regional specialties — creates a well-rounded resort spa experience in genuine Korean highland nature.
