[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] Hapcheon-gun, Gyeongnam, is promoting the Hapcheon 7 Colors Walking Challenge, a non-face-to-face and contactless travel program where participants can experience nature and culture, in line with changing travel trends due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic.

This event, held from April 3 to 11, aims to publicly promote hidden tourist spots that can only be discovered by walking, using Hapcheon-gun’s smart tourism electronic map (online).

Online pre-registration for the walking event begins on the 25th. On weekdays, the event is conducted online only, while on four weekend days (April 3, 4, 10, and 11), on-site registration and guidance will be provided. Operating hours are from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Anyone, including Hapcheon residents and visitors, can participate free of charge.

Participation steps are: ▲ online pre-registration ▲ search for ‘Hapcheon electronic map’ on a portal site ▲ log in to the website ▲ select a desired course from the seven stamp tour travel routes and walk. If participants pass through at least three points per course, an electronic completion certificate will be issued.

Moon Dong-gu, Director of Tourism Promotion, said, “This travel program suited for the COVID-19 era will promote Hapcheon’s charm and flavors in various ways, encouraging consumption through slow walking, experiencing, and staying, thereby revitalizing the local economy. We aim to elevate Hapcheon’s status as a wellness tourism destination where visitors can heal their body and mind exhausted by the pandemic.” He added, “Participants are asked to strictly follow daily quarantine rules such as hand sanitizing and wearing masks to prevent the spread of COVID-19.”
