Worak Mountain is a major mountain of the Sobaek mountain range. Its highest peak is 1,162 m above sea level. It forms part of the boundary between Chungcheongbuk-do and Gyeongsangbuk-do. Its slopes contain portions of Mungyeong city in Gyeongsangbuk-do, as well as Danyang-gun, Jecheon-shi, and Chungju-shi in North Chungcheong.

Worak Mountain is the centerpiece of Woraksan National Park, and its slopes are home to numerous Buddhist shrines and historical sites. The area is known for its beauty and history, and is sometimes referred to as "Little Geumgangsan" to compare it with that famed Korean mountain. The tenth-century Hubaekje leader Gyeon Hwon, who was born nearby, allegedly planned to build a palace on the slopes of Worak Mountain, although he was never able to do so.
