A beautiful forest of old-growth nutmeg trees, accessed by flat, gravel walking paths. In the center of the forest stands a Japanese Torreya tree that is more than 800 years old, the oldest tree on Jeju. There are two connected walking paths: a short trail takes about 30 minutes and the longer loop perhaps double that.

Manjanggul Cave is a famous lava tube and a UNESCO-listed world natural heritage site. There are numerous lava caves all over the world, but it is said that it is difficult to find a place like Manjanggul Cave that has well-preserved shape and topography even though it is hundreds of thousands of years old. The interior, which looks like an underground palace, has a magnificent and profound atmosphere, especially stone turtles like elaborate sculptures, which are popular with tourists because they look like Jeju Island. As such, the inside of the cave is accompanied by lava stalactites on the ceiling and lava wings on the wall, creating the mystery of the underground world. The 7.6-meter-high lava stone pillar at the end of the open section is the largest in the world. The closed section is not visible to tourists, but it is known that bats, landfills, crayfish worms, farm-footed spiders, and little oyster spiders live there. Manjanggul Cave is protected as a natural monument along with nearby Gimnyeong Cave.
