Hallasan Snowflake Bus:

A Magical Journey Through Jeju’s Winter Wonderland

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Hallasan Snowflake Bus, a special service designed to showcase the snow-blanketed beauty of Hallasan Mountain, has officially begun weekday operations as of January 13th.

 

This unique bus route provides an enchanting winter escape, offering residents and visitors alike the chance to experience Jeju’s snow-covered highlands, far removed from the typically mild climate of the island's urban areas.

 

According to the Jeju Special Self-Governing Province, the Hallasan Snowflake Bus operates six trips per weekday.

 

The service begins at 9:30 a.m. with departures from the Jeju Bus Terminal and concludes with the last trip at 4:30 p.m.

 

Two buses are dedicated to this route, which includes stops at Jeju Bus Terminal, Hallasan Hospital, the Provincial Art Museum, Eorimok, the 1,100-meter Rest Stop, and Yeongsil Branch. Complementing these are the Route 240 buses, which also traverse a similar path, increasing the total weekday trips to the 1,100-meter Rest Stop to 15.

 

The weekday service expansion responds to persistent passenger demand, reflecting the popularity of Hallasan’s snowy landscapes during the winter season.

 

However, travelers are advised that operations may be adjusted or canceled depending on road and weather conditions to ensure passenger safety on the steep and winding 1,100 Road.

A Festive Journey to a Winter Paradise

 

From the moment passengers step aboard the Hallasan Snowflake Bus, the holiday spirit becomes evident.

 

The interior of the bus is decorated with festive lights and Christmas ornaments, creating a cheerful and cozy ambiance.

 

As the journey begins, the soft strains of the carol Silent Night, Holy Night add to the magical atmosphere, transforming the ride into a whimsical experience reminiscent of Santa’s sleigh.

 

As the bus moves away from Jeju City, the urban scenery gradually gives way to pristine white snowfields, a stark contrast to the mild conditions downtown.

 

For many passengers, this marks the beginning of an unforgettable winter adventure.

 

The snow-covered trees and landscapes viewed through the bus windows evoke a sense of tranquility and awe, a rare sight for Jeju residents accustomed to the island’s generally temperate winters.

Challenges and Beauty on the 1,100 Road

 

Approximately 20 minutes after departing the city, the bus reaches the 1,100-meter Rest Stop, one of the highlights of the route.

 

Here, passengers are greeted by a bustling snowy scene affectionately called the "snowy traffic jam."

 

Cars line the roadside, and the Snowflake Bus carefully maneuvers through the narrow, slippery pathways.

 

Recent snowfall has piled up on both sides of the road, further complicating navigation and requiring the bus to proceed cautiously.

 

Despite the challenges, the 1,100 Road remains a beloved destination for locals and tourists. Its steep, winding path is often treacherous in snowy conditions, but it offers unparalleled access to Hallasan's breathtaking winter scenery.

 

For many Jeju residents, who rarely experience snowfall in their daily lives, this route is a treasured opportunity to immerse themselves in the magic of Hallasan's snow-covered forests and mountain views.
