Wonmul Oreum (Korean: 원물오름), also called Wonsuak, is an oreum (small extinct volcano) in Andeok-myeon, Seogwipo, Jeju Province, South Korea.[1]
The origin of the oreum's name is uncertain. It is likely named after a still-extant spring at its base.[2]
The oreum has a height of 98m and elevation of 458.5m. Its circumference is 3,369m and its area is 584,056m2. There is a volcanic crater at the summit. It has a hiking trail on it; the hike was described as one reviewer as brief and not strenuous. The reviewer praised the view from the top. There is a parking lot at the trailhead.[1]
