Spent last weekend hiking around the western outskirts... In the morning I left home to head out for a short hike just outside Seongseo Industrial Complex on the western Daegu. It was cloudy in the morning and cool, but getting hotter when the sun started to shine. The trail goes straight on the bank of the Geumho river. Hiked to the nearby mountain where the trail disappears over the horizon as shown photo above. People named that Gungsan 궁산 meaning a bow-shaped mountain. Sometimes a few walkers, cyclists on bikes, runners and dogs with their owners pass by.
A traditional building at the bottom of the mountain comes into view if you keep walking north and pass under Gangchang bridge. The river flows past the rocky cliff on the left. People usually take the trail by the building to start hiking right up to the mountain and should go uphill from the start. Once you walk up, the trees block the sun's heat and the cool breeze blows through them. The left photo shows the view of the top and the other one the scene from the top overlooking the southern area, from which the trail in the photo at the top is dimly visible in the distance.
