Deogyusan National Park covers Geochang-gun of Gyeongsangnam-do and Muju-gun of Jeollabuk-do. Starting from Mt. Deogyusan's main peak, Hyangjeokbong, the ridges are about 1300m above sea level, and as it stretches southwestward for about 18 km, it branches out in many directions to create a huge assemblage of mountains. For every branch of the mountain ridgeline, there are matching valleys at Mt. Deogyusan. Among these valleys, Mujugucheondong Valley, stretching 25 km from the Deogyu peak to Seolcheon River on the north, is the most famous. There are 33 sceneries in the valley known for their beauty, called Gucheondong 33 Kyeong, but the 12th Kyeong, known as Susimdae, is the most beautiful. Susimdae is a valley 400 m deep. Because water as clear as jade flow through here, it is also called Suhwa.
Deogyusan also has three valleys that are grouped together, the Chilyeon, Jeoksang, Munan valleys, and among them the Chilyeon Valley is the most beautiful. It is famous for its Chilyeon Waterfall, where clear water passes by thick pine forest and goes between various shaped of rocks. This water current has created seven ponds, and the way they are all lined up makes up for a very interesting view. Clear water comes into each of these ponds, circles for a while, and then falls into another pond to create seven segmented waterfalls. The Chilyeon Waterfall blend well with the surrounding old pine trees and maple trees. In the summer, many vacationers, and in the fall, people looking for autumn colored leaves visit this area.
Deogyusan has many such beautiful spots of valleys, waterfalls, pine forests, and fantastic looking rocks. All the more, with Mujugucheon-dong being the center, in conjunction with the National Park Administration Office, they provide the visitors with many convenience facilities in order to make their stay here more pleasant.
