Gusugol Bongdong Valley: a swimming area entered past the ticket booth on the bridge

To get to the water play area, you pass the ticket booth on the bridge, park your car and go in. The changing rooms, restrooms, showers and sinks are grouped behind the parking lot, and the local youth association runs and manages them. If you only play in the water without renting a pavilion or a wooden platform, you pay only the 3,000 won parking fee.

The valley is in Hyeonsan-myeon at the foot of Duryunsan Mountain and is on the 'Mountain Foot Trail Overlooking the Sea' course. Walkers and hikers stop here to dip their feet and rest. A forest bathing area with thick woods runs along the stream, so the shade is a good place to escape the heat.
