Eunpyeong-gu (Mayor Kim Mi-kyung) is operating the walking event ‘Our Neighborhood's Simple Walk Challenge’ every 2 to 3 weeks until August, based on courses proposed by residents.

This course was selected through the ‘Walking Course Contest by District’ held last March. To encourage walking in daily life among residents, the district invited residents to submit walking courses and has been running the walking event ‘Our Neighborhood's Simple Walk’ since last month.

The district will continue to operate themed walking courses in July and August, allowing participants to experience various walking trails and enjoy the sense of accomplishment from regular walking practice.

The July event features the ‘Eunpyeong Neighborhood Path’ course, running from July 5 to 20. The course is approximately 6 km long and takes about 1 hour and 30 minutes, connecting Nokbeon Station~Seoul Innovation Park~Bukhansan Ecological Park~Bulgwang-dong Food Alley~Eunpyeong-gu Public Health Center. In August, the Eunpyeong Park Path course is scheduled.

To participate, install the ‘WalkOn’ app on your smartphone, join the ‘[Eunpyeong-gu] Walking Community by District’ in community mode, and select Eunpyeong-gu’s ‘Our Neighborhood's Simple Walk (Eunpyeong Neighborhood Path)’ in challenge mode.

Among participants who complete more than 80% of the walking course during the event period, 200 will be selected by lottery to receive mobile Seoul Love Gift Certificates. For more details, contact the KakaoTalk channel ‘Eunpyeong-gu Public Health Center Exercise Life’ or the Health Promotion Division of Eunpyeong-gu Public Health Center.

The ‘Our Neighborhood's Simple Walk’ held last month, featuring the ‘Eunpyeong History Path’ course connecting Eunpyeong History Hanok Museum~Seoul Geumseongdang~Gupabal Stream, received enthusiastic responses from many residents.

Kim Mi-kyung, Mayor of Eunpyeong-gu, said, “We will continue to discover walking-friendly courses and operate various programs to promote a walking-friendly environment and healthy living among residents. We ask for the active interest and participation of residents.”
