Bikepacking da Seul a Busan

Get ready for a legendary ride! Cycling from Seoul to Busan is South Korea’s iconic long-distance challenge—about 545 km of mostly paved paths, scenic riversides, and a generous dose of rolling hills (you’ll climb over 7,400 meters in total!). Most of your journey follows the beautiful Four Rivers Bicycle Route, meaning you pedal on dedicated cycleways almost two-thirds of the time, far from busy traffic.

Starting in bustling Seoul, you’ll follow quiet rivers, cruise past tranquil farmland, and roll through small towns brimming with Korean culture. Don’t miss quick stops for convenience-store snacks—they’re a cycle tourist’s best friend! As you get close to Busan, the seaside vibes kick in. Finally, you’ll roll into Busan, a vibrant port city famous for its beaches, delicious seafood, and energetic atmosphere.

This is a bucket-list ride for many cyclists, and for good reason! Just pace yourself, pack rain gear, and get ready for some unforgettable adventure across the Land of the Morning Calm.
