[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Dongjak-gu (Mayor Changwoo Lee) is creating a "Neighborhood Walking Path with a Rose Tunnel" in the area of Sadang 4-dong 1150-2 by the end of this month.

The Ggachisan hiking trail is one of the seven Dongjak Chungyo-gil courses, starting from Baegungoecoe Ecological Bridge (Sadangigoegoe), passing through Ggachisan Neighborhood Park, and continuing to Gwanaksan Mountain, covering approximately 3.6 km and connecting the southern green axis of the district.

Last year, the district prepared this project to revitalize the use of the hiking trail and contribute to local economic development by gathering opinions from nearby residents.

This year, with a project budget of 55 million KRW, a rose tunnel will be created at the entrance of the Ggachisan hiking trail so visitors can enjoy the beautifully blooming roses.

The district plans to continuously manage the rose tunnel by removing weeds, controlling aphids, and trimming rose branches.

Additionally, for the safety of residents using the hiking trail, old wooden stairs will be removed and replaced with new wooden stairs treated with anti-slip measures.

Moreover, in October last year, from behind the Ggachisan Apartments to the summit of Ggachisan, the district completed the installation of ▲202 old wooden stairs at the trail entrance ▲289m of soil-retaining boundary posts ▲7 cross drainage channels and 28 sections of safety handrails on slopes, and planted mountain azaleas.

This year, with an investment of about 140 million KRW, the district will carry out ▲replacement and installation of old wooden stairs and safety handrails on the hiking trail from the summit of Ggachisan to the ecological bridge toward Gwanaksan ▲road surface maintenance ▲installation of coir mats.

Kim Wonsik, Director of the Parks and Greenery Division, said, "Through this project, we will create a unique park in our district and provide residents with a healing space within the city."

Last June, the district promoted a "Flower Path Journey along the Rose Tunnel" as a resident-participation budget project in the green facility area along the Gyeongbu Line 2 railway (around 25-10 Noryangjin-dong), planting climbing roses and installing trellises.
