All about the trip

Join us for an unforgettable day to Namiseom Island and Gangchon Rail Park which is located northwest of Seoul.

This famous, manmade island of Namiseom was formed as a result of the construction of the Cheongpyeong Dam. It is well-known for being half-moon shaped and the gravesite of General Nami, who led a great victory against the rebels in the 13th year of the 7th king of the Joseon Dynasty.

Namiseom Island is 63 km away from Seoul in the direction of Chuncheon, and is famous for its beautiful tree lined roads. Since it is not far from Seoul, many couples and families come to visit.

A special feature of Namiseom Island is that there are no telephone poles. This is because all electric wires were built underground to keep the natural feeling of the landscape. The famous avenues of chestnut and poplar trees are situated all around the island.

After enjoying a traditional Korean lunch of 'Dak Galbi' (veggie option available), we will head towards the Gangchon Rail Park.

Gangchon Rail Park is a popular 'eco-tourist' spot where visitors can use 'pedal-along' carts to cruise along the old railroad tracks whilst enjoying the views of Bukhan-gang river.

The Rail Park opened in August, 2012. The Rail Park has three stations: Gimyujeong Station, Gangchon Station and Gyeonggang Station. The distance between Gimyujeong Statoin and Gangchon Statoin is approximately 8 km, so it is possible to pedal some considerable distance at this location.
