About the festival

The Jeju Olle Walking Festival is a three-day group walk on Jeju Island's Olle trail, with village performances, traditional games and local lunches along the route. The 16th edition runs 5–7 November 2026 on Courses 19 and 20 on the north-east coast, opening at Jocheon Stadium near Jocheon Manse Hill and covering about 13 km, 11.5 km and 12.9 km on successive days. Pre-registration (₩30,000, or ₩25,000 discounted) closed on 9 October; walkers can still register at the start on the day, but the on-site fee was not in an organizer notice we could open. It is the last edition in this format: from 2027 the festival is to become a 25-day walk over 23 courses.

Transport, booking, crowd and accessibility details are on the main Jeju Olle Walking Festival page, which covers every edition.
