Ttangkkeut Monorail in detail
Ttangkkeut Monorail: a ride to the observatory for travelers who find the climb hard
It is an electric vehicle from Ttangkkeut Village to Ttangkkeut Observatory, so people with disabilities and older people who find it hard to walk up the hill can easily reach the observatory. On the way up, the sea of the southwestern coast spreads out outside the windows. Wheelchairs are not provided. source 1
Ttangkkeut Monorail: fares by round trip and one way
A round-trip ticket is 6,000 won general and 4,000 won for children (age 3 to elementary school students), the same in Korea Tourism Organization TourAPI and Haenam County Culture and Tourism. For a one-way ticket, the child fare of 3,000 won is the same, but the general fare differs: 4,500 won in TourAPI and 5,500 won in Haenam County Culture and Tourism. It is a good idea to call before visiting (061-533-4414). If you plan to walk down from the observatory on the deck path, choose one way; if you plan to ride the monorail back down, choose a round trip. The sources do not say where one-way tickets are sold. Ttangkkeut Observatory admission is not included in the monorail fare. source 2
