From olden times Mt Chilbo is called Kumgang in North Hamgyong Province for the combination of beautiful mountain and seascape.
It lies in Myongchon, Hwadae, Myonggan and Orang counties of North Hamgyong Province.
Covering an area of 250㎢, the mountain has Chonbul Peak (659m) as its main peak.
The magnificent look of the mountain boasting of graceful peaks, deep ravines, falls, ponds, woods and seascape and sculpture-like steep rocks are so picturesque and precious that people named it Mt Chilbo (meaning seven treasures).
The unique scenery of the mountain varies with the localities, and is divided into Inner Chilbo, Outer Chilbo and Sea Chilbo, according to their features.
