We had been in Jeju island. We saw the hawk at the cliff. Hawks are the fastest birds in the world. They live at the cliff. We had the binoculars. When we found out the hawk, we were so excited. We were in the middle of the hiking. There are twenty hiking routes called Olle-gil in Jeju island. I like it so much and it was my second trip there. It takes five to six hours for walking across the a single route. There are many guesthouses near the route so you don't need to worry about to stay.
I'd appreciate it if you could teach me various expressions

They live aton the cliff.
They live "on" the cliff. The preposition "on" works better than "at"
When we found out the hawk, we were so excited.
The preposition "out" is not necessary. You can just say "when we found the hawk"
We were in the middle of the hikinge.
"hiking" is the present progressive of a verb. Because a verb "to be" (conjugated as "were") already exists at the beginning, we would use the noun "Hike", like "we were in the middle of the hike"
It takes five to six hours forto walking across the a single route.
the preposition "for" and the present progressive "walking" are replaced with the infinitive verb "to walk". The indefinite article "a" is used instead of the definite "The"
There are many guesthouses near the route so you don't need to worry about tohe stay.
"to stay" is the infinitive of a verb. "The stay" is a noun and works better in this situation.

Overall, this is good. However, you might want to learn more about how verbs work in English, and "nominalization" - turning verbs into nouns
