'Wolasan Supsok-ui Jinju' is an integrated name that includes the existing Wolasan Woodland, Wolasan Natural Recreation Forest, Forest Leisure Complex, and Healing Forest.


Jinju City plans to complete the second phase project, which includes the Natural Recreation Forest and Forest Leisure Complex, by the end of the year, following the first phase development of Wolasan Woodland.


The final third phase project, the Wolasan Healing Forest, is currently in the detailed design stage. The completion date is scheduled for the end of 2023.


Jinju City will invest 16 billion KRW, including national and provincial funds, in the construction of Wolasan Natural Recreation Forest and Forest Leisure Complex, installing 15 lodging rooms, a complex sanitation facility, 8 glamping units, and 6 camping decks.


The Forest Leisure Complex will feature six types of adventure experience facilities such as net adventure and zipline. Jinju City plans to provide citizens with various forest welfare services ranging from forest education centered on Wolasan Woodland to forest recreation and forest leisure.



Mayor Cho said, "'Wolasan Supsok-ui Jinju' will strive to become a forest recreation space where citizens, exhausted physically and mentally from COVID-19, can heal and recharge."
