Autumn in Jeju—enjoy it in the most autumn-like way possible: a silver grass hotspot outing. Swaying in the breeze, the silvery plumes are a special scene you can only catch in autumn. From the vast fields along Pyeonghwa-ro to Jeju’s signature silver-grass oreum, a quiet hidden gem, and even a coastal path perfect for sunsets—we’ve gathered them all. Whether you’re after photo spots or a quiet walk, pick the one that suits you 🌾
As you drive along Pyeonghwa-ro in western Jeju, you’ll spot this silver grass colony spread out below at a glance. Endless waves of silver grass across a vast plain instantly bring autumn to life. Even just passing by in the car feels like fall is right around the corner—so if you’re traveling the west side, it’s well worth a stop.
One of the signature oreum of western Jeju, located right by Pyeonghwa-ro, so it’s easy to reach and always popular. With no trees on the slopes, the panoramic view from the top is breathtaking. In autumn, the entire oreum turns into a sea of silver grass—making it a classic choice for a fall getaway.
A 대표 silver grass spot on the east side, it draws more visitors than usual in autumn. From below it looks like a small hill behind a village, but it’s an easy climb—about 10 minutes to the top. Once you reach the summit, you’ll be greeted by a landscape filled with silver grass, and the loop trail is great for a leisurely 30-minute walk to soak in the season.
A silver grass spot in Jocheon, close to Jeju City. The name “Dakmeoreu” comes from the area’s shape—said to resemble a chicken scratching the ground and sitting down. Also famous for sunsets, this coastal path becomes especially beautiful in autumn, when silver grass ripples in the wind along the shoreline. Recommended if you want to enjoy both an easy walk and golden-hour views.
Located between Saebyeoloreum and Geumoreum, this oreum is relatively lesser-known. Locals come here when they want a quieter hike, making it a great fit if you prefer peaceful travel. It may be tranquil, but the view from the top is just as impressive as the more famous oreum.
Home to a crater larger than Hallasan’s Baengnokdam, Sangumburi is a major autumn draw for its silver grass. You can enjoy both the crater and the silver grass along well-maintained walking paths. Note that it’s the only spot on this list with an admission fee—so if you’re only after silver grass scenery, you may want to consider pairing it with free alternatives too.
