Unlike most streams on Jeju Island that can easily run dry, Gangjoencheon Stream, located to the east of Gangjeon Village in Seogwipo-si, flows with clear water all year round.
The stream streches 16km in length and has 7 small tributaries, 6 bridges and 13 waterfalls. The old pine trees and unilquely formed rocks and stones on either side of the stream
make for great natural sightseeing.
The stream is home to sweetfish and groups of mandarin ducks, which
are natural monument No. 327. During the summer vacation
period, the stream is crowded with vacationers thanks to the clean water and
relaxing environment.
