My family and I were up on High1 Ski Resort
on the 10th December 2023 - 3 days after opening of the season. We booked on Trazy so we just wanted to share our experience because I think there’s a lot to say…
1. We took the train as we couldn’t book the shuttle bus on Trazy. Not many take the train.
2. We decided to head to Gohan station. The station to take from in Seoul is Cheongnyangni station. We took the 0734h train.
3. Arriving in Gohan, we had to find our way to the check-in centre - here is the name found in Naver Maps - Kangwon Land Mountain Condo Check-In Centre (Geupsok)
[Naver Map]
https://naver.me/5ipJRgVu
4. You will need to get a taxi from Gohan station and there’s a taxi stop down the steps at the main road about 15m to the left of the 7-11 at the bottom of the stairs. You can also get the shuttle bus but it only leaves once every hour so it could be a long wait.
5. Don’t try to walk to the check-in as it’s far and mostly uphill with little pavement to walk on
6. Once you get to the check-in centre you will get a voucher for the ski equipment rental and for the lift passes. You cannot get your keys yet, not until 1500h in the afternoon! So you would need to come back here. They were kind enough to store our bags (me, wife and 2 kids) until we came back to check in.
7. With the vouchers in hand, walk uphill to the Ski House where you would find the ticket counter (left of the porte couchere) to redeem the vouchers. You’ll get a ski pass with an arm band and a receipt to show to the equipment rental inside.
8. Now get inside the Ski House to rent your equipment.
9. Rent a locker first, rent the tall big ones at 10000KRW for 24h to store your skis for your trip. The ski equipment is not bad, not that old, but not new either. Just well maintained.
10. If you need to rent ski clothes, it’s upstairs behind the shop that sells gloves and socks.
11. You cannot rent goggles as there’s none to rent, but helmets are free. Pick one up form the equipment bin.
12. Now you’re all set to ski!
13. Once you’re done and need a rest, it’s time to head back downhill to check-in. The check-in station is open 24h.
14. We got Block F Mountain Villa and it’s a bit of a walk uphill again after you get your key pin (6-digit pin will open your unit door).
15. The unit was big, and very warm due to the under floor heating. Snug and comfy.
16. There is one queen sized bed in the master bedroom and 3 sets of Korean thin mattress/futons in the other room compete with duvet, so our unit could fit 5 people easily.
17. THERE ARE NO BATH TOWELS provided, only small face towels. No shampoos either only a small bar of hotel soap. We were annoyed this was not listed anywhere by Trazy, but I’m letting you know now so you all know better.
Once you’re in the room, it’s now time to enjoy the ski and snow with relish. This place is pretty much a ski-on, ski-off resort, very close to the start of the gondolas up at the Ski House. Very well organised. There’s a convenience store at the bottom of Block F for sundries but meals might be an issue - not much choice at all.
This isn’t a full service hotel but a holiday apartment setup with convenience. It’s a place designed for someone with a car. It would be so much more convenient to have one. With a car at least meals could be taken down the valley In the village.
A short note on the slopes - it’s a great place for beginners. Easy but long slopes to get those turns in. Some parts are narrow though, so be careful. Early season snow was wet and not so nice but that’s no one’s fault but Mother Nature. If you find yourself here when all the slopes are open and there’s decent snow cover - it’s really not bad, not bad at all.

Beautiful day. Nice resort. Nice runs.
65000 won for a half day. 30000 won gear hire. Going up for full days pass.
The ski pass and rentals seemed decent but the lessons where way over the top.
Ticketing is outside. Poorly identified from the road. I had to walk up to look. Rentals inside and the lifts are up stairs.
Rentals need a better range of gear and please some training. Skis are old. Not waxed or cared for at all. The skis you rented me were about 5 or 6 years old. The base was turning white from drying out. Not waxed or edge tuned and that is crazy on an artificial field. Largest ski is a 160. Are you serious. Snow boards looked the same. So if you are over 5'6 and/or 60kg rent before you come. And many people were asking for bigger. About half.
And no premium rental. Good way to let the customers down and not make money
But. Quite discriminating. I was treated very very differently from the locals. Repeatedly having to walk back to my car to get different id's. passport taken off me (which is in contrast to korean law. And common sense) with no guarantee or assurance of how it would be handled.
Patrol just whistle at people. I have seen this on other fields. But there is some interaction between patrol and the public. I watched people crashing right in front of patrol and they didn't come out. Just kept on whistling. Wierd
Repeatedly pushed aside by staff. Id checked a bunch.
Staff always say that it's management policy.
Many of the staff were very good. And friendly
I have skied on way worse fields on way worse days. And had much better times.
I work on ski fields professionally. I will never ski here again even on free passes

Less English speaking staffs, and self service machine is only local language. Spacious areas, plenty of ski rides, large slope is good for a beginner to practice. Easy access with private car. But still reachable by bus then walking a lot to each building. If no car then stay at Valley is the closest building to bus stop and ski house. Stayed at Mountain Condo needs to walk up to the ski house via bridge and outdoor passing through the kid/ fun park. The quality of rental gear is average to low ie. boots is old to somewhat new, helmet is free of charge, not seen the rental clothes. The snowboarding is not adjustable compare to Japanese ski resort. The snow quality is average from early Dec. Multiple food choices mostly local food and Western (junk food) quick grab pizza, burgers, fried chicken. Convenience store is available from 8am - 11pm.
Definitely agreed to the other comment that high traffic of peak hour where beginners and expert shared slope looks so dangerous.
Overall I would still give Japan ski resort with the awesome best choice for snowboarding in term of safety, quality of rental gears and “snow powder” helps safe a beginner with super FUN 🤩. Here is designed for a local’s needed with personal gears and safety surely require more improvement.

There are basically 2 bases: the Valley and the Mountain. From there, many slopes from Beginner to expert. Both bases have food outlet (though choices are limited), information desk and ski school. Mountain Base has archery as well as Sunrise and Sunset tour. If you take the Korea Tour foreigner bus, it will drop you off at Mountain Base. There are free shuttle. Buses going to all areas.
If you are beginner, I recommend to have your base at the Valley and you can take the Gondola to Valley condo or take Zeus chairlift up. For intermediate, I recommend mountain base, you can take the Condola or Athena chairlift. For the pros, get to the Valley hub.
If you are non Korean citizen, you should first visit the information desk and get a resort card. The card will give you 50% discount on ski Pass!!
For ski school, they only do private lesson and cost is around 240k Won.
Overall, the ski field is great, slopes are long but not boring.
Oh XLOh XL
If you are not local and u wanna try ski? Please be warned that the rental price of the ski set equipments are quite expensive. You have to rent their ski outfit, ski equipment set. That would cost u about 80-100$ USD. The area for you to ski is relatively small because you are a beginner right? The slopes and all are for the experts, which are not recommended because they might crash into you at those speed. It requires hell lot of energy to ski as well, its not as simple as it seems. Also, if you are not someone whom exercise regularly, the next day after you ski you will feel a very bad muscle ache on your shoulder and your arms.(that’s me) cuz The equipment sets are really kinda heavy. overall it’s a different experience but No, I will never go again. Hahaha

4.4Amusement Park
Dominic TamDominic Tam
Warm water in Winter. Most pools are indoor with warm air so you will not feel the cold.
The Park requires swim wear. After payment of admission, your receipt will have a number. The number will be your lockers number. Your key will be with the shoe locker which can open the main locker and also act as your debit card. Once you have the key, then you will need to head to the coin adjustment counter to add credit. Note they do not accept foreign credit cards. Admission fee includes shower towel and shampoo and body gel. Most pools except spas require life jacket to enter both adult and children. Life jacket, beach chairs, massage chairs require "coins" so unless you only go there for spa, recommend to add coin first.
There is a restaurant inside and outside food is not allowed.
No time limit for entrance.
There are free parking and also free High 1 shuttle bus from Station, Casino and Mountain Condo. Taxi is very rare.
If you are non Korean, bring your passport for discount on entrance fee.

지금까지 비수기(야외 미오픈)
다녀온곳 중 제일 좋았음
워터슬라이드도 3개 다 운영.
야외로 통하는 유수풀있음
-여긴 유수풀용 튜브가 없음. 낮기도해서 그냥 알아서 떠다니면서 움직임.
파도풀이 초반인 시시했는데 나중엔 좀 재미있기는 했음
중간중간 스파도 잘되어있음,
맥주 인당 2캔만 가능.우린 안가져갔으나 입구에서 다 확인하심.
식당도 1,2층 종류가 많음
비수기 겨울은 그런건지 다녀온때가 그런건지 4시반에 끝남.시간확인하시기 바람.
숙박권에 포함된거 사용하고
네이버에서 9900 원 행사해서 사용.
숙박권에 포함된 할인권은 만원대
알아보시고 싼걸로 이용하세오.
실물카드로 키 연동하면 추가로 정산이나 머할 필요없이 바로 카드에서 빠짐.
씻고 그냥가면 됨.
아쉬운건 탈수기가 없음.
룸와서 말려야함. 콘도라 그런지 건조대가 있음.
룸더워서 실내에서 금방 마름

7월 비수기에 가족들과 방문하였습니다.
백신 접종자를 위한 혜택을 받아 아주 저렴하게 이용하였네요.
하이원 리조트 1박 숙박 시 2인은 무료로 이용 하였고, 나머지 2인은 반값에 입장료를 결제하였습니다.
비수기라 모든 놀이 기구들이 운용되지는 않았지만 주요 기구들은 정상 운용되었습니다.
특히 높은 파도가 치는 웨이브풀에서 온가족이 파도를 맞으며 재미있게 물놀이를 하였습니다.
그 외에 부메랑도 낭떨어지에서 떨어지는 듯한 스릴을 느낄 수 있어서 좋았네요.
간식이나 식사할 곳도 가격대가 비싸긴 했지만 많아서 좋았습니다.
사람들이 많이 없었기에 락커룸, 샤워장도 컨디션이 매우 좋았습니다.
가족들 모두 만족한 하루를 보낸곳입니다.
강원랜드 놀러왔다가 워터파크도 함께 즐길수 있어서 이곳 방문을 추천합니다.

초여름 날씨!! 하늘을 더 없이 맑고 새 하얀 구름 덩어리들이 뭉개뭉개 푸른 지붕을 한껏 덮어 청정지역임을 체감했다. 솔솔 바람타고 불어오는 산 내음음도 이내 코를 흠뻑 적셔 자연과 동화되는 전율을 느꼈다. 짜잔~~"하이원 워터월드" 실내수영장에서 야외 유수풀 그리고 슬랑이드까지 중딩 아들과 정신없이 놀다 보니 여름휴가를 온 것 같은 착각에 빠져들었다. 원숭마냥 온수탕에 뿌연 육수국물에 떼거지로 들어 앉아 있는 무리들 틈을 삐집고 들어가 몸도 지져보고 참 재밌는 경험이었다. 배 껍데기가 등껍질에 달라 붙을 무렵 실내 푸드코트에 들러 먹었던 우동, 짜장면, 돈까스는 왜이리도 입에 착착 감기던지 무릉도원이 부럽지 않았다. 이렇게 가족과 함께한 1박 2일의 짧은 여정은 내 인생의 좋은 추억과 기쁨이 됐다.

하이원 워터월드 물 좋다고 해서
미취학 + 초저 아이와 다녀 왔어요.
운영시간이 10:00 - 16:30 으로 짧아요.
체크아웃 하는 날, 체크 아웃하고
10시 오픈런 해서 워터월드 안에 있는 푸드코트 가서
식사 ( 짜장면, 육개장, 불고기 덮밥, 피자) 했어요.
듣던대로 온수에, 물 깨끗한 편이었어요.
비수기 시즌이라 사람은 많지 않았는데
12시쯤 되니 점점 많아지긴 했습니다.
탈 수 있는 놀이기구가 3개나 되어서 좋았네요.
(키 120은 되어야 탈 수 있어요.)
보통 비수기 워터파크는 실내 어트랙션 1-2개 열고
그마저도 돌아가면서 운영하는데 말이죠.
유수풀은 유속이 느려요.
실외로 도는 코스인데 물이 따듯해서
춥진 않아요.
스파, 바데풀 잘 되어 있어서 놀다 쉬기도 좋아요.

태백석탄박물관은 한국의 석탄 산업 역사와 문화를 알 수 있는 곳으로, 특히 석탄이 한국 경제 성장에 미친 영향을 잘 보여주는 박물관입니다. 이곳을 방문한 후기를 몇 가지 요약해 드리겠습니다.
1. **전시 내용**: 박물관은 석탄의 형성 과정, 채굴 방법, 그리고 석탄 산업의 역사에 대한 다양한 전시물들을 제공하고 있습니다. 특히, 실제 광부들이 사용했던 도구들과 옛날 광산 작업장의 모습을 재현한 전시관이 인상적입니다. 전시물을 통해 석탄 산업의 전성기와 쇠퇴 과정을 잘 이해할 수 있었습니다.
2. **체험 프로그램**: 박물관에서는 광부 체험을 할 수 있는 프로그램도 운영하고 있습니다. 실제로 광부들이 작업했던 갱도와 유사한 환경에서 체험할 수 있어, 광부들의 삶을 조금이나마 느낄 수 있는 시간이었습니다. 체험을 통해 단순히 보는 것을 넘어 직접 느끼고 경험할 수 있어 매우 흥미로웠습니다.
3. **교육적 가치**: 특히 학생들이 방문하기에 좋은 장소입니다. 한국의 산업 발전 과정과 자원의 중요성, 그리고 에너지의 역사 등을 배우기에 유익한 장소로, 역사와 과학에 관심 있는 이들에게 추천할 만합니다.
4. **시설 및 접근성**: 박물관의 시설은 깨끗하고 잘 관리되어 있습니다. 다만, 박물관이 태백에 위치해 있기 때문에 접근성이 다소 떨어질 수 있습니다. 하지만, 주변의 자연경관과 함께 방문한다면 충분히 가치 있는 여행이 될 것입니다.
5. **기념품**: 박물관 내 기념품 가게에서 석탄과 관련된 다양한 상품을 구매할 수 있습니다. 특히 석탄을 소재로 한 소품들이 인기가 많습니다.
종합적으로, 태백석탄박물관은 석탄 산업에 대한 깊이 있는 이해와 함께, 한국의 산업 발전사를 배우기에 좋은 장소입니다. 광부 체험 프로그램과 잘 구성된 전시물 덕분에 모든 연령층이 흥미롭게 관람할 수 있습니다.

Built up in the heart of Korean coal mining region, this museum tells you a story of such hard labor. Unfortunately due to Corona situation I couldn't get into the museum itself, but the area around is flooded with rusty mining machinery and realistic sculptures. Definitely must visit place!

얼마 전까지만 해도 석탄 시대였건만 이제 석탄은 구시대 유물이 돼버렸다. 석유시대를 지나 전기 시대를 이야기하고 있다. 불과 부모님 세대 때만 해도 석탄은 익숙한 에너지원이었지만 지금은 그렇지 않다.
석탄 주산지였던 태백은 석탄 덕분에 흥했고, 석탄 시대의 종말과 함께 내리막길을 걷는다. 태백석탄박물관은 석탄 시대를 되돌아볼 수 있는 귀한 공간이다. 내부가 알차고 정리가 잘 돼 있다. 생각보다 자료 양이 많아 자세히 들여다보려면 꽤 많은 시간을 들여야 한다.
단순히 유물만 정리해놓은 것이 아니라 그 시대 삶을 들여다볼 수 있도록 꾸며놓았다. 석탄을 캐는 장면, 지하 갱도 속에서 점심을 먹는 장면, 갱도 내 사무실에서 휴식을 취하는 장면, 탄광 주위 막사에서 살았던 사람들의 집 풍경 등 그 시대가 강렬한 장면으로 다가온다.
장면 장면을 잘 재현해놓았기 때문에 어른들과 함께 구경하면 특히 재미있을 만한 곳이다. 아마 50대 이상이라면 "나때는 말이야..."라는 말과 함께 시작하는 추억담을 듣게 되지 않을까 싶다.
더운 여름에 실내공간은 시원해서 더욱 매력이 있다.
