http://english.visitkorea.or.kr/enu/SI/SI_EN_3_1_1_1.jsp?cid=1061818
http://www.bukak.or.kr/etc/english/index.asp
Direction :
Because it is located close to the presidental palace, security is high and you must carry your passport with you. You can only enter from 9 a.m.-3 p.m. and must finish your hike before 5 p.m.
However, if you want to view the fortress wall at night or don't want to worry about carrying a passport, you can access the wall from Dongdaemun Gate (you can see spectacular night views from this route). Take the subway to Dongdaemun Station (Line 1), Exit 1. Make a U-turn upon leaving the station and walk in the direction of Dongdaemun Gate. Just before you reach the large intersection in front of the gate, turn right into a park and walk uphill. Soon you will be walking next to the fortress wall, and
can walk next to it for several kilometers.

28) Seoul Fortress Wall / Bugaksan Mountain:
http://english.visitkorea.or.kr/enu/SI/SI_EN_3_1_1_1.jsp?cid=1061818
http://www.bukak.or.kr/etc/english/index.asp
Direction :
Because it is located close to the presidental palace, security is high and you must carry your passport with you. You can only enter from 9 a.m.-3 p.m. and must finish your hike before 5 p.m.
However, if you want to view the fortress wall at night or don't want to worry about carrying a passport, you can access the wall from Dongdaemun Gate (you can see spectacular night views from this route). Take the subway to Dongdaemun Station (Line 1), Exit 1. Make a U-turn upon leaving the station and walk in the direction of Dongdaemun Gate. Just before you reach the large intersection in front of the gate, turn right into a park and walk uphill. Soon you will be walking next to the fortress wall, and
can walk next to it for several kilometers.

37) Central Inland Region Tour Train
Photo Credit: KORAIL (Korea Railway)
The Central Inland Region Tour Train will
begin operation starting April 12, and will give passengers an opportunity to
enjoy the beautiful scenery of the mountain areas of Chungcheongbuk-do,
Gangwon-do, and Gyeongsangbuk-do.
The Central Inland Region Tour Train will have two different courses. The O-train will run along a circular track, and the V-train will run through scenic valleys. The O-train will depart Seoul on a 257.2km course through Jecheon in Chungcheongbuk-do, Taebaek in Gangwon-do, Yeongju in Gyeongsangbuk-do, and back through Jecheon before returning to Seoul. The O-train runs four times a day, carrying up to 205 people in four cars including a car for couples and a car for families. The train also has an observation car with a café in it. The V-train runs on a 27.7km track connecting Buncheon in Gyeongsangbuk-do and Cheolam in Gwangwon-do. It has 3 cars that can accommodate up to 158 people, a café, and a section with specially designed seats for enjoying scenery.
The train tickets are in the same price range as the Saemaeul Line (top tier trains) and ticket purchase is available online or on-site. The opening ceremony for the train service and the trial runs have already been completed.

Some info on these trains :
" In order to access the V-train, visitors
are recommended to first take the O-train, which connects Seoul and Jecheon,
and then loops around Jecheon, Yeongju and Taebaek.
Trains depart from Seoul Station at 7:45 a.m.
every morning, arriving at the transferring Jecheon Station at 9:55 a.m.
From there, passengers may flag specific
stations and routes to reach the valley area and the V-train."

The O-train is a shuttle train that loops around the inland running through Gangwon-do (Gangwon Province), Gyeongsangbuk-do (North Gyeongsang Province), and Chungcheongbuk-do (North Chungcheong Province). The V-train, which connects to the O-train at Cheoram, Seungbu and Buncheon stations, travels 27.7 kilometers back and forth between Buncheon and Cheoram stations.
For the O-train and V-train, a two-day tour is most recommended because it would be very tight if someone tries to do it all in one day. It would take one full day to take the O-train and transfer to the V-train and then back to the O-train and then transfer to another train to return to Seoul.
