Sinseondae is a coastal volcanic-rock landmark around San 170 Yongdang-dong, Nam-gu, Busan. Views toward Busan Port, Yeongdo and Oryukdo are associated with the summit area called Mujedeung. A memorial to the first British naval expedition visit in 1797 also stands near the summit. The Korea Tourism Organization entry revised in March 2026 lists accessible parking and a wheelchair-accessible approach to the main park entrance. It does not state that the upper hillside route is continuously step-free or accessible to wheelchairs. The park is described as open year-round, but weather, terrain and works may affect routes. Ask Nam-gu about the specific section you can access if the summit panorama is your goal.
