"The Star of Korean Tourism," a program where the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism and various institutions jointly select outstanding travel destinations in South Korea for a year.
In 2023, the honor of being designated as the Star of Korean Tourism goes to the Millennium (1000 year) Forest Trail on Mount Balwangsan!
Thanks to your cherished love and support for Mount Balwangsan and the Millennium (1000 year) Forest Trail, we are thrilled to receive this recognition. Thank you very much.
At an elevation of 1,458 meters, the summit of Mount Balwangsan hosts the Millennium (1000 year) Forest Trail in Summit Land!
This path, surrounded by 1000-year-old trees exuding sacred energy, teaches and leads to happiness for me and everyone, through various values whispered by the ancient trees.
In 2020, with the intention of creating a comfortable path for everyone, as well as children and the elderly, the design aimed at minimizing deforestation and protecting wildlife, with the help of the Korea Forest Service and Pyeongchang County, resulted in the birth of the Millennium (1000 year) Forest Trail, a cozy 3.2 km deck path.
Featuring precious treasures of Mount Balwangsan like Mayumok, Mother & Father King Trees, Balwangsu, and Owls of Wangsuri, the Millennium (1000 year) Forest Trail generously shares these treasures with everyone—a path filled with infinite maternal love and true resemblance.
While walking along this path, share heartwarming stories with your loved ones, listen to the whispers of the trees, indulge in quiet contemplation and meditation alone, and capture beautiful moments in photos against the stunning backdrop.
Discover happiness on the Millennium (1000 year) Forest Trail of Mount Balwangsan.
