An official from the county said, “The Gyeonghogang River in Sancheong, boasting pristine natural scenery, offers optimal conditions for enjoying rafting,” adding, “We will do our best to manage water play safety so that visitors to Sancheong-gun can enjoy water activities safely.”


According to the Gyeonghogang Rafting Association, as the heat continues recently, inquiries for rafting experience reservations have been increasing. The Gyeonghogang River in Sancheong is considered one of the top rafting spots in Korea due to its outstanding natural scenery.


With fast currents and no whirlpools (沼), it is an ideal place to enjoy rafting. Additionally, various programs such as survival games and all-terrain vehicle (ATV) experiences are operated amidst the magnificent landscapes of Jirisan and Ungseokbong, attracting many tourists.



Accordingly, Sancheong-gun and the Gyeonghogang Rafting Association are accelerating efforts to provide high-quality rafting services to users by continuously expanding and maintaining convenience facilities.
