Seoul International Hikers Club will take a walk through the center of Seoul on Saturday, giving walkers the chance to look at and hear about the secret culture and stories of the city.

The group will start at Jongno-3ga Station passing through a back-street alley, visit Seoul Fortress and end up at Hyehwa Station in the Daehangno area.

Although it is a city hike, participants are advised to wear proper hiking footwear and bring light snacks and water with them.

To attend, contact sihclub@gmail.com by 6 p.m. on Friday. First-timers should provide basic contact information in case of an emergency.

The hike starts at 10 a.m., whatever the weather, and will last until 2 p.m. The group will meet at Exit 2 of Jongno-3ga Station.
