About
Elephant Rock is situated approximately 500 meters off the northern coast of Ulleungdo Island and rises to a x_height of 50 meters. It derives its name from its remarkable resemblance to an elephant. This distinctive formation resulted from lava solidifying after a volcanic eruption, with the unique gap between what appears to be the elephant's trunk and its body sculpted over time by the relentless action of the waves.
Visitors also explore Nari Basin (나리분지), Samseonam Rocks [National Geopark] (삼선암 (울릉도, 독도 국가지질공원)) and Gwaneumdo Island (관음도) near this location.
