A guide for those wanting to go to High One resort by the shuttle bus:

  • There are shuttle buses running every night from Ulsan to the resort. They pick you up at different places around the city, for example Dongcheon Stadium (Jung-gu), The Arts and Cultural Center (Samsan-dong), Gonguptap (Nam-gu) and Shinbok Rotary (Mugeo-dong). Different buses have slightly different schedules, but most of them pick up at around 3am.
  • The shuttle buses are free for season pass holders until the end of March. For non-season pass holders it’s 25,000 one-way, 35,000 day return or 50,000 open return.
  • You arrive at the resort at around 7.30am, just in time to rent gear and hit the slopes at 8am. The return buses pick you up at the same place and depart at 4.30pm.
  • Renting gear at the resort isn’t expensive. Day rental for skis is 16,000 (if you pay by card: more by cash) and board is 20,000 (again, more if you pay by cash). Jacket and pants rental is 15,000 (if you pay by cash). Helmets are ‘free for foreigners’. Rental shops outside the resort are a little bit cheaper, and they’ll pick you up and drop you off from the ski house for free. They can also cut you deals for season rentals.
