You can walk around the rocky cliff shoreline between Dodong and Jeodong, an area that was not accessible previously. Ulleungdo has quite a number of festivals, the best part being that most are impromptu ones, so expect the unexpected. In Jeodong, you can walk up and around a gorgeous waterfall which provides most of the drinking water for the community. The Dokdo Observatory overlooks the Dodong Harbour and can be reached by a cable car by a short walk from Dodong. The observatory sits on top of a mountain peak.
