Before the official opening of the recreation forest, the city plans to pilot operate the seven forest houses from the 14th to the end of this month to inspect the facilities and take preemptive measures for any necessary improvements.

Accordingly, to provide benefits to Gimje citizens, the city will charge a temporary usage fee of 30,000 KRW per night for Gimje residents and city officials during the pilot operation, aiming for a successful opening of the recreation forest.

Those who wish to apply for use during the pilot operation period can visit the Eup/Myeon/Dong administrative welfare centers by the 9th to apply, and users will be selected through a random draw afterward.

A city official stated, “For a successful opening, please be aware that noise may occur due to repair work during the pilot operation period, and we ask for your understanding when applying.”
