As
the oldest ski resort, Yongpyong Resort with its yearly average temperature of
6.2 degrees Celsius maintains a long ski season with a lot of natural snow. Moreover,
it is getting numerous compliments from skiers about its convenient facilities
as a superior ski resort.
The Rainbow Course extends from the peak to
the base, which is about 5 km. As the longest course, it is available
to skiers of all levels. The level of difficulty varies among each course but
Yongpyong makes it easy to switch from course to course while skiing down. A
3,742m long Gondola carrying 8 people is operated from the Ski House to the 1,438m
peak, which is the Rainbow Course. On clear days, the East Sea and the whole Mt.
Odaesan come into view from here. The scenery is truly the pride of Yongpyong
and it deeply impresses its visitors.
