Jeju Province expects many visitors to Hallasan starting from October, when the autumn foliage season begins. To prevent the spread of COVID-19, it plans to expand non-face-to-face exploration programs and strengthen COVID-19 prevention activities for visitors.

Additional staff have been deployed near shelters and the summit to maintain social distancing among visitors and to provide continuous guidance and promotion.


Moreover, facilities frequently used by visitors, such as restrooms, have increased disinfection from twice a day to four times a day. The exploration information center and mountain museum strictly comply with COVID-19 prevention guidelines including △temperature checks △mandatory mask-wearing △social distancing △entry restrictions.
