Gamaksan Starry Flower Journey
감악산 꽃별 여행
The Gamaksan Starry Flower Journey is a major autumn festival held from September through October on the Byeolbaram Hillside at the Gamaksan peak. Themed around 'a purple pause for me,' the event celebrates the mountain's natural beauty through diverse performances, interactive experiences, and culinary delights. Visitors can explore chrysanthemum fields, participate in stamp tours, enjoy photo zones, and write letters at a slow mailbox to be received the following year. The Starry Flower Market showcases local specialties, while dining areas serve traditional regional cuisine at affordable prices.

🎟️ How to book — Official event site
- 1
Most regional festivals are free entry
Korean municipalities fund a huge number of free festivals (flowers, food, light shows) — free entry is the norm, not the exception, sometimes with paid stalls or activities on site.
- 2
Check the event's official site
The link sits on the event's VisitKorea page — it's the most reliable source for the program, hours, and any last-minute changes.
- 3
Book via a Korean platform if a reservation is required
When a festival has paid premium activities or an attached concert, booking usually goes through NOL or YES24 — see the matching guide on this page.
- 4
Call 1330 when in doubt
Korea's tourism hotline answers in English, Chinese and Japanese, 24/7 — handy for confirming a time or address when the official site is Korean-only.
💡 Good to know
When a price shows as "see details", the organiser simply hasn't published one in advance: in almost all of those cases entry is free and only some on-site activities are paid. Bring a little cash — many stalls don't take cards.
