About this audio guide
This guide to Akkeun Darangshi Oreum on Jeju starts with the short walk from the parking lot to the rim, and with the name itself: akkeun means small in the old Jeju dialect, a nod to the far larger Darangshi Oreum standing across the road. From there it traces how this modest cone came to exist at all, following Hallasan's centuries of eruptions and the parasitic vents they scattered across the island. The crater across the road, deep and bowl-shaped, is worth comparing against the gentler slope underfoot. In autumn, the hillside turns silver with windblown reeds rooted in old ash.
