Gangneung Express Bus Terminal: Usage Guide and Latest Information

Gangneung Express Bus Terminal serves as a primary gateway for travelers to Gangneung, operating in conjunction with the Intercity Bus Terminal by sharing a central plaza. The two terminals are connected by a semi-circular structure, effectively functioning as a single comprehensive terminal, offering convenient access to major tourist attractions within Gangneung.

The terminal is well-equipped with various facilities, including ticket counters, convenience stores, cafes, luggage lockers, and portable charger rental services. A new express bus route from Jumunjin/Yangyang to Incheon International Airport was launched on April 28th, enhancing travel options. Routes to Seoul are divided into two main destinations: Seoul Express Bus Terminal (Gyeongbu/Yeongdong Line) and Dongseoul Bus Terminal, with various bus classes such as standard, premium, and late-night premium available.

Bloggers recommend booking tickets online via the TmoneyGO app or the Kobus website, advising early reservations for Seoul-bound buses, especially during weekends or peak seasons, due to potential early sell-outs. The air-conditioned customer waiting lounge is highlighted as a useful space for passengers waiting during hot summers or cold winters.
