Deoksan Neodeol (Mudeungsan Area National Geopark)

Neodeol, also called Neodeolgeong, is a pure Korean word meaning a slope scattered with many stones. The columnar jointing formed during the late Cretaceous Period of the Mesozoic Era (about 87 to 85 million years ago) weathered and split to become the present Neodeol. Deoksan Neodeol is the largest Neodeol on Mudeungsan, stretching 600m in length and up to 250m in width, and along with Jigong Neodeol, it is a representative Neodeol of Mudeungsan.
