About this experience

Camel Riding in Chusan is a guided camel ride along the coastal paths of Chusan, a district on Ulleungdo Island. The activity offers a rare chance to ride camels on a volcanic island, combining the animals' desert origins with the island's rugged shoreline. Each ride lasts approximately 20 minutes and follows a fixed route with views of the East Sea.

What to expect

Ride a camel for 20 minutes on a designated track near Chusan's harbour, with the sea visible on one side and Ulleungdo's cliffs on the other.
Includes a brief safety briefing and a handler walking alongside the camel at all times, suitable for first-time riders.
Participants can take turns leading the camel to a photo point at the end of the track, where the animal is tethered for close-up viewing.
The activity operates daily from 10:00 to 17:00, with rides leaving every 30 minutes; no booking is needed for walk-in visitors.
Suitable for adults and children over 90 cm tall, with a weight limit of 100 kg per rider.
After the ride, visitors can feed the camels with provided carrots, and a small shaded seating area offers a rest spot overlooking the water.
