Visit Jeju describes Olle Route 12 as a 17.1 km, moderately difficult trail taking about 5–6 hours from the Jeju Nature Ecology and Culture Experience Center entrance to Jeolbuam in Yongsu Port. It passes Noknambong, the Sindo coast, Suwolbong, Eongal Coast, Jagunae Port, Dangsanbong and Saengigijeong Trail before reaching Yongsu. Suwolbong and Eongal offer views of coastal volcanic sediment layers. According to the official tourism listing, the early section is fairly level but rocky ground and an oreum appear after the Sindo coastal area. Take care near cliffs and wet rocks and never enter closed coastal paths. Schedule the walk to finish before dark and check the Jeju Olle operator's current diversions and the day's weather. The tourism listing does not confirm live route conditions or transport.
