Reviews
I borrowed hiking boots from this center and had such a wonderful experience. The staff were extremely friendly, kind, and patient. They helped me choose the right size and made everything easy. I really appreciate their service and highly recommend!
Renting shoes here was the absolute best decision! It was supposedly an easy trail on Mount Gwanaksan, but it was still a genuinely tough climb (haha). Thanks to renting shoes here, I didn't slip, didn't hurt my ankles, and was able to climb safely. Above all, the staff were so kind and spoke Japanese, which made it worry-free to use. The facility is also conveniently located right by the subway exit before you even go above ground, making it very easy to find. Plus, it's clean! You can use lockers for free, there's a changing area, and I highly recommend it for travelers ^^
Very friendly staff, helpful, excellent value, want to go back to Gwanaksan mountain soon!
