Route signs
Blue arrows are the route signs for Jeju Olle trails.
You can find these blue arrows on the stone walls of local villages, rocks near the seaside and on the road.
Sometimes you can find blue and yellow ribbons knotted around trees.
If you don’t want to miss these small signs you should keep your eyes peeled and enjoy your surroundings.
- Preparations
- *Shoes
- Comfortable walking shoes are needed. Sandals would be good for the sandy paths on some routes in summer
- *Clothing
- Jeju weather is unpredictable. Even though the sky is clear, prepare suitable clothing for occasional strong winds and rain. Wind stopper jackets, a spare jacket with long sleeves and raincoats are recommended.
- *Cash
- When you buy seafood, drinks or snacks on the routes, please be aware that the kiosks don’t take credit cards. These small stalls are often run by old grandmothers, who only accept cash. Be prepared and bring a small amount of money with you.

- Attention
- - Drink a lot, between half a litre and a whole litre an hour if you can. Do not drink any alcohol.
- - Take enough rest, preferably in the shade.
- In the event of thunder or lightning
- - Seek shelter inside a (farm)house or other building.
- - Do not stand under a tree or lamppost, as you will not be adequately protected.
- - If you cannot find an overhead shelter, crouch down at the side of the road,
preferably in a dry ditch or other low-lying area.
- - Do not kneel or lie down at the side of the road, but sit down with your arms folded around your legs.
- - When thunder and/or lightning comes closer, do not call with your mobile phone.
A mobile phone may attract thunder and lightning.
- - Remove iron items (such as large necklaces, bracelets or a backpack with an iron frame) from your body.
- In the event of heavy rain
- - Do not walk with an umbrella. This may give cramps and is dangerous in the event of thunder and lightning.
- - Wear cotton headgear in the event of heavy rain.
This may somewhat prevent your body from cooling down.
