A long mountain-and-coast day for early starts. This road trip is shaped as a ride, not as a shortcut: leave the start cleanly, use the first checkpoint for fuel and weather discipline, then let the middle 156 km be the part you remember. The best part sits around Daegwallyeong high road, Gangneung coast, Odaesan return roads, while Hongcheon fuel and the food stop keep the day practical instead of turning it into a fuel hunt. Check the selected map before departure: scenic sections, transfer sections, speed/control reminders, risk points and the GPX checkpoint order are deliberately visible so the route is understandable before the engine starts. Ride it early if the area is popular, keep the photo stops legal, and shorten the route if weather, daylight or energy stops agreeing with the plan.
Fuel at 0 km. Next is Daegwallyeong high road.
You top out here; the road stops climbing. Next is Gangneung coast.
195 km in you reach Gangneung coast. Next is Odaesan return roads.
Odaesan return roads, late in the day. Next is Hongcheon fuel.
Back at Hongcheon fuel. That is the ride.
