View original image[Asia Economy (Daejeon) Reporter Jeong Il-woong] The National Natural Recreation Forest, which was temporarily closed due to the spread of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19), will partially reopen starting from the 22nd.
The National Natural Recreation Forest Management Office announced on the 21st that it will open the natural recreation forests by establishing detailed living quarantine guidelines in accordance with the Central Disaster and Safety Countermeasures Headquarters' easing of social distancing measures.
Earlier, on the 19th, the Central Disaster and Safety Countermeasures Headquarters decided to maintain social tension for eradicating COVID-19 while somewhat easing the intensity of social distancing, and announced the resumption of operations for relatively low-risk outdoor dispersed facilities such as natural recreation forests, arboretums, and national parks.
Accordingly, the Natural Recreation Forest Management Office prepared the 'Natural Recreation Forest Living Quarantine Detailed Guidelines' and the 'National Natural Recreation Forest Opening Plan,' deciding to open forest trails and hiking paths in 41 natural recreation forests nationwide, excluding Heirisan Haesong Natural Recreation Forest (used as a quarantine facility for overseas arrivals).
However, the use of campgrounds and lodging facilities will be sequentially reopened starting with facilities with lower infection risks, reflecting the adjustment of the COVID-19 crisis alert level, according to the Natural Recreation Forest Management Office.
