Gran Fondo Seorak presented by Giant
/ENDURANCE SPORTSWIRE/ – Imagine yourself pedaling through lush forests, past cascading waterfalls, and alongside towering granite peaks. Seorak Gran Fondo takes cyclists on an unforgettable tour of Seoraksan National Park, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve renowned for its natural beauty and diverse ecosystems. Each twist and turn of the route reveals panoramic vistas that will leave cyclists awestruck and inspired.
Seorak Gran Fondo isn’t just about the scenery; it’s about the challenge. Cyclists of all levels converge to tackle the varying routes, ranging from manageable distances for beginners to epic climbs for seasoned pros. Whether you’re aiming for a personal best or simply relishing the joy of the ride, Seorak Gran Fondo offers a supportive atmosphere where participants push themselves to new heights while forging lasting friendships with fellow cyclists.
The Seorak Gran Fondo in South Korea began on June 5, 2010, at 5 a.m., with ten enthusiastic Korean riders setting off from the eastern foot of Baekbokryeong in Gangwon Province, crossing seven hills, and riding 265km to reach Sokcho. Known for its scenic route encompassing the beautiful landscapes of Gangwon Province’s Seoraksan and Odaesan regions, the Seorak Granfondo features a challenging course with five major hills, totaling 208km with 3,700m elevation gain, earning it the toughest ‘F’ grade. Particularly, the last segment crossing Guryongryeong in reverse (from east to west) involves a grueling 20km uphill climb, classified as a UCI uphill category ‘HC’ grade.
