   Seolmaejae refers to the mountain pass located at the entrance leading to the front gate of the recreation forest. Legend has it that it received its name because plum blossoms bloomed in the snow on a heavily snowy winter day long ago. Seolmaejae Recreation Forest is reachable from Seoul in under an hour. It features pine and larch plantation zones, colonies of painted maples and maple trees, royal azaleas, and natural pine hiking trails connected to Yumyeongsan and Yongmunsan Mountains.
