The stream stretches 16 kilometers in length and has 7 small ponds, 6 bridges and 13 waterfalls. The old pine trees and uniquely formed rocks and stones on either side of the stream make for great natural sightseeing.

The stream is home to sweetfish and groups of mandarin ducks, which are Natural Monument. During summer, the stream is crowded with vacationers thanks to the clean water and relaxing environment.

Suwolbong peak is a small oreum located in Gosan-ri, the westernmost point of Jejudo Island. Suwolbong rises 77 meters above sea level and the ocean-facing natural formation is surrounded by steches of green fields. On a clear day, the sunset from Suwolbong is comparable in beauty to the one from Sarabong.

On top of Suwolbong Peak is a small pavilion called Suwoljeong. The pavilion offers views of Chagwido (an island known to be the most beautiful in Jeju), as well as Songaksan Mountain and Jukdo Island. Next to Suwolbong Peak is a mountain weather station that observes and forecasts the weather for the western region.

Below the peak is a small Buddhist temple and Eongal, a steep cliff which faces toward the sea. Visitors can enjoy mineral water that falls freely from the cliff.

Located at the western end of Jeju Island, Suwolbong Tuff Cone, a small mountain, is famous for being a favorite sunset viewing place. The mountain has vertical cliffs spreading out like a scroll painting, created from the sea waves gradually cutting inland.
To the north, off the coast, is Chagwido Island, where only the top peak area has grass growing, and the rest of the island is made up of dark basalt rocks and cliffs. Around sunset, Chagwido’s seashore turns crimson red from the sun and is truly an amazing sight to behold.

Situated on the northern coast in downtown Jeju, Yongduam Rock is an estimated 10-meter-tall stone that has been worn down over time by strong winds and waves into a shape resembling a dragon's head. There are many legends surrounding the rock. One legend has it that a dragon stealing precious jade from Hallasan Mountain was shot down by an arrow from the mountain deity. When he fell down, his body immediately sank into the ocean and his head rapidly froze looking at the sky. Another legend has it that a white horse, who dreamed of being a dragon and ascending to the sky, came to be caught by a soldier and froze into the rock.

From Yongduam Rock, visitors can see haenyeo (female divers) working at catching seafood. Near the rock are various cafes, bars, and restaurants. The coastal road between here and Aewol-eup is popular among couples. Cafes and seafood restaurants began to appear there five years ago and now form a pleasant café village.
