Phoenix Pyeongchang Snow Park — Attraction in Bongpyeong-myeon

Overall I would say it’s a good experience there.

There is ski rental, lockers, convenience store, Cafés, buffet, as well as Lotteria (fast food), all the necessary amenities for skiing.

The mountain relies on Artificial Snow as it does not snow quite often (probably 3 times a week in mid-Dec)

The price of the Snow Park was a little too expensive. There a different types of Ski Pass, including all day (9am to 10pm), 1pm pass as well as well as Night Ski (6-10pm)

**closed from 4-6pm for night ski preparation

Most staff there speak Korean too (only some speak English)

How to get there (from Seoul): Book coach bus/pre book taxi ride/KTX bullet train

There is a FREE shuttle bus available to and from Phoenix Pyeongchang. Goes around Pyeongchang town which includes KTX Pyeongchang Station as well as Bus Terminal. If you are taking KTX there, you can take the shuttle bus.

The only problem with the shuttle is that if you are carrying luggage(s), you may have a hard time because you have to climb up the bus.

I enjoyed my time skiing here. As it was my first time skiing in Korea, it was a surprising experience. The fact that you can rent everything, including clothing, came as a huge surprise.

The park itself was fairly crowded on a winter weekend. Lift times took quite a while and you had to ski through a lot of people on the way down.

There are some restaurant options that are okay after a day of skiing. We drove back in about 2 hours, but there are also plenty of buses.

Loved the experience here. My first time learning to ski and the instructor was a young but expert competitive skier from Argentina who taught so well that i was able to do the east slope within a few hours! The place has got flipped for all classes, for skiing out for snowboarding, and it’s quite easy to rent the equipment for...
