You left your plans at home, right? Then you're all set.
Hi there!
I'm Dokko, your guide at Amudena.
I'm actually a burr seed, the kind that hitches a ride on passersby's clothes and travels.
This time, I'm sticking to you!
“Amudena” is Korean for “anywhere.” Wherever the wheel lands, that’s where you’re going.
Amudena travel rules
Just four promises before we go!
- NO appsPhone for calls and camera only! Let the rest take a nap.
- NO reservationsPick your stay and your meals when you get there. Kinda exciting, right?
- NO GPSFind your way with a paper map and by asking the locals.
- NO expresswaysNational and local roads only. You see more when you go slow.
How to use this book
Stay 1Eat 1Café 1See 1 Stay 1, Eat 3, Café 1, See 2...
calling things by number is handy.
Like "Call Stay 3!"
- We haven't been there ourselves. But you can call and judge for yourself. So what will you choose?
- We left out prices on purpose. If you're curious... yep, call them.
- As of October 2026. Different from what you see? That's travel too!
- Bring your own paper map. I'm a seed, so I don't have one. I just stick on and go.

What's Ulleung-gun like?
I'll tell you just a little of what I know.
A volcanic island rising in the middle of the East Sea. You can only get there by boat from the mainland.
The whole island is steep mountains and rocky coast, so the view is picture-perfect wherever you look.
And you can't skip the seafood: squid, barnacles, and Dokdo shrimp!

This year's festival calendar
💡TIP! No festival info for this year yet. Asking a local is the fastest way.

Getting there by ferry
It's an island, so you'll need a boat.
Here's how they ran over the last 2 weeks.

No sailings from Gangneung or Uljin Hupo appear in the records for this period (they may run depending on the season).
💡TIP! Ferries get cancelled a lot because of weather. Always check before you head out!
💡TIP! Boats to Dokdo leave separately from Ulleung. Ask once you get to the island.
