Seorak Waterpia is a large outdoor thermal spa and water park resort at the foot of the spectacular Seoraksan National Park in Gangwon province, South Korea, channelling bicarbonate-rich hot spring water into open-air soaking pools with direct mountain views. The dramatic alpine setting of Seoraksan — one of Korea's most celebrated national parks — combined with high-quality thermal water makes this one of the country's most memorable spa experiences. The outdoor pools are especially atmospheric in autumn when Seoraksan's forests blaze with vivid seasonal colour.
