Overview

Baegunsan Recreational Forest  (1/3) Baegunsan Recreational Forest  (2/3) Baegunsan Recreational Forest  (3/3) 1 / 3

The valley flowing from the top of Baegunsan Mountain to the north direction is called “Yongsugol.” A dense forest, pristine waters and numerous rock formations in the vicinity all provide a beautiful scenery. The downstream area of the valley holds a large amount of water and it is a popular place for vacationers and visitors all year round. The forest park contains a wide variety of trees, some of which grow naturally while others have been more recently planted. In particular, the 1.7-kilometer section of the valley that stretches from the entrance to the resort area boasts breathtaking scenery and is lined with weigela and wild cherry trees. The park is carpeted with various wild flowers such as dicentra, columbine and hepatica, and wild animals such as water deer, wild boars, and raccoons are easily spotted.
