The most beautiful park in seoul! On the top of the park, you will see Han river and grass.
How to go : World cup stadium station (brown line) exit.1, Go straight until you see traffic light in the left hand side and then cross the street. Turn right and keep straight. you will see blue bridge in front of you. It's entrance to the park.

If you do not wish to attempt 291 stairs or long hilly walk up to the top of the park, you can take the golf-cart shuttle service departing from the park entrance at a small charge (1 way 2,000 won / return 3,000 won).

Take the metro to World Cup Station and go out from Exit 1. Then walk across to Haneul Park. Takes about 5 minutes walk only. Pay for the entrance fee of 3000 Won and add a little extra to take the shuttle to the top but for those who enjoys the walk, by all means hike up the slope.
Went in December2018 and enjoyed the place without all the crowd. Had all the time to take photos, etc. The views from Haneul Park is breathtaking. But once the wind blows, hope you have enough layering to protect you. :p
They only had the toilets at the Café area opened. While the rest were all closed. Café wasn't open either.

I love this place. Quaint and away from the hustle bustle of the city. Not to mention the view from the top is amazing - you can see the river and the World Cup stadium too.

If you make the trip all the way out to Sky Park (Haneul=sky) go when the grass is tall, so I suppose in the summer or autumn. I went when the grass was cut and the park was bare. Interesting fact: the sky park is a covered up pile of garbage.

The park offers 360° view of Seoul and the Han. Worth noting is how the park came about. From being a landfill to becoming an attraction tells us that nothing is impossible with political will and determination.

If u want Seoul pictures different from all your friends', then this is the place to go! your pictures will come out looking Instagrammable too!
Take to World Cup Stadium Station and then walk towards Haneul Park. u have the option to take the buggy shuttle bus up onstead of climbing the steep slope up. The bus is highly recommended and cost only KRW1000 for a round trip.
The field is huge so no worries about crowd. Each one has his own little patch of muhly grass to disappear into and take pictures!

It has fresh air and clear blue sky. I really enjoyed the moment there. You can go there by subway to World Cup Stadium Station and walk about 1 kilometres to Haneul Park. You can choose shuttle bus and pay about KRW 5,000 for round trip or just walk by the upstairs to the destination. It was good experience!!!

You may call it hype, marketing, commercialized space... I call it, a patch of beautiful nature called PARK
If you have the time, GO
Autumn is the best time to go when the grass turns pink and the leaves are yellow. The path is already an adventure with the different sounds that tingle your senses
The signage around about wild creatures make you appreciate their respect for nature and the natural habitat of animals
Some say it is nice to go on foot instead of riding the buggy... I think paying 3,000 Won is better then perhaps fulfilling your step while at the top moving from one section to the other is much better.
Make sure to take a drink with you because you will want to sit in one of the huts with a cold drink on hand (and maybe some snacks)
-DONT FORGET THE SUNSCREEN!

To be honest, its just another park. It will serve as a good location for wedding photoshoot but I can't think of another reason to go there and walk under the hot sun. It provides good vantage points overlooking seoul and the world cup stadium but thats about it. Not much variety of flora or fauna too.

Hi, is it worth visiting the park around end June? Or it will be too hot?
Thank You.

The park would be the most beautiful during fall (around late october will be the most beautiful). June would be a little bit too hot cause you have to climb up lots of ladder to reach the park, so it will be kind of exhausting. But if you're okay with hot weather then it will be okay.

จะไปเกาหลีวันที่ 15 มีนาคม 2019 นี้ อยากทราบว่าต้นหญ้าโดนตัดไปหมดหรือยังคับ
Can you please provide a step-by-step direction going to Haneul Park from the World Cup Stadium Exit 1 - we are afraid we might get lost because many travellers found it difficult getting to Haneul Park.
PS: We prefer taking the shuttle bus to the top so if you know where the ticketing is located, kindly indicate. Thank you!

Hi! I agree with LeowD1. After the long escalator from Exit 1, just turn left or if you are bit confused, just used Google Maps or Naver Maps. A little bit of walking around 8 to 10 minutes. I think you will not get lost because it has signages. Below it, they have the shuttle bus, you just have to line and ask if it will be shuttle bus going to Haneul Park. I think walking going to Haneul Park is worth to try. We walk to Haneul Park just to experienced what Koreans always do.
Hi! Is it worth it to go to the park around December 28th? What should I expect to see?

Is it worth visiting in late December (12/26)? I'm interested in seeing the Eulalia plants or the pink fields, or anything in bloom then. Thanks!

I can’t confirm but I don’t think the Eulalia plants will be available anymore in late Dec due to the extremely cold weather. But still good to check with those who went to the park now / this week.

Is the Eulalia plant still available this time as its coming to end of November. I’m planing a trip this weekend and wondering if it’s worth going ?

Hi! It is still visible and available. These type of grass also lives in a cold season/winter season. Enjoy Korea!
I would go to seoul on 12th -18th october. I know it’s the early autumn season but can i get the silver/brown grass landscape?

Not really. Especially this year, we have a delayed and extended summer. Most likely a moth later.
