A great place to visit and walk if you are a nature lover. Atmosphere is very peaceful. The entire course is around 2-3 km and the terrain is flat so it is good to spend 1-2 hrs here and soak in the greenery. Cost was 3000 won per adult.

Nice little forest path if you pass by. Very easy trail for all ages. You can find a variety of old torreya trees on a charming walk.I would only go if I'm near the area.

I really liked this forest because it's a nice, relaxing walk in a beautiful surrounding among trees that are hundreds of years old. It's very cheap admission (I think around 2,000 won for adults) and takes about an hour to an hour and a half to walk through. The total course is 3.2km if you walk the whole route. It's a very easy walk, but some parts are loose rocks, so wear appropriate foot wear.
