Jangamsan Paragliding Site
장암산 활공장
A paragliding site on Mount Jangam, 836 metres above sea level beside Pyeongchang town. Tandem flights take off from the summit and soar over the winding valley of the Pyeongchang River.
Mount Jangam lies south of Pyeongchang-eup. Its summit take-off site is one of Korea's well-known paragliding launch points, offering views of the town and farmland encircled by the Pyeongchang River. Ordinary visitors can sign up for a tandem paragliding flight with an instructor. The flight lasts about 10–15 minutes, and the full experience, including transfers, takes about 1.5 hours. It costs around 100,000–150,000 won. Book in advance, as flights are cancelled in poor weather. If you don't fly, you can drive up to the summit observation deck to watch the sunset.
