Jiri-san National Park actually spans three provinces (North Colla and South Jeolla,
in addition to South Gyeongsang), although South Gyeongsang has the largest portion,
as well as the highest peak in the park. Ch'eonwhang-bong peak is the second
highest peak in Korea and rises 1915 meters. Even those not making it to the top have
a tough climb, with over a dozen major peaks higher than 1,500 meters.
The park contains an abundance of water, with many streams and rivers creating waterfalls
on all sides of the park.
