Ulim Waterfall

Ullim (Echo) Waterfall is a 75-metre waterfall appropriately named due to the roaring sound it emanates through the valleys. The falls are hidden within some unforgiving landscape, and in 2001 it was finally opened to the public after road access was built by Korean People’s Army soldiers. The year ‘2001’ was carved into the rockface in commemoration.

You’ll often find locals from Wonsan enjoying a picnic at the waterfall, a fun opportunity to throw our frisbees around or share in some soju. The road from Ullim Waterfall links with Chonnae County and back to Wonsan, both of which are cycling routes on our annual North Korea bike tour!
