Jeonju Ajung Lake Waterfront Trail 'No More Blockages!'

Jeonju City Completes Additional Construction of Ajung Lake Walking Trail with 139 Million KRW Investment

[Jeonju=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Han-ho] Jeonju City announced on the 2nd that it has completed additional installation work for the Ajung Lake walking trail since last July, with a total project cost of 139 million KRW.

This project was promoted to resolve the inconvenience caused by having to go around outside the lake due to the disconnection of the northeast trail, despite the creation of a 160m waterfront trail section last year, and to reduce safety concerns arising from this.

Jeonju City created an additional trail by installing eco-friendly wooden decks and walking mats over approximately 93 meters, and also created a new space where visitors can view the lake from above the stairs.

Going forward, the city plans to make every effort to manage the area to maintain a clean and beautiful lake environment and to ensure that Ajung Lake becomes an ecological park harmonizing with nature.

Prior to this, Jeonju City began the Ajung Lake waterfront walking trail project as an independent project in 2019.

In 2015, with 2.5 billion KRW of national funds secured through the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism's tourism resource development project, the city began creating a waterfront trail where lake visitors can stroll around the lake and enjoy its scenery. In spring and summer, visitors can admire water lilies, lotus flowers, and irises, while in autumn and winter, the city promoted a wetland garden project where visitors can appreciate beautiful natural landscapes such as silver grass colonies.
