This time's subway walking course is Janghanpyeong Station on Line 5. Near Janghanpyeong Station, there are places where roads and sidewalks are tangled, making walking difficult. However, the long connected walking paths and gentle mountain trails combine to make up for these drawbacks, making it a worthwhile course.


First, if you exit from Exit 4 of Janghanpyeong Station on Line 5 and walk straight for about 500 meters, you will reach the Jungnangcheon Stream. The embankment path along Jungnangcheon is a walking trail made of soft urethane on the ground, perfect for walking. It is a famous walking spot where cherry blossoms bloom in spring and autumn foliage creates a spectacular view. Nearby, there are also riverside areas where bicycle paths and walking trails are harmoniously connected.


Walking along Jungnangcheon, if you go up the connecting passage at Dongdaemun Vehicle Storage, you will reach Baebongsan Park. Baebongsan is a 106-meter-high mountain located in Jeonnong-dong, Dongdaemun-gu, Seoul. Baebongsan Park is well maintained with wildflower gardens and ecological ponds. At the summit, there is a wide open space called Haemaji Square, where you can take a short rest.


After leaving Baebongsan, the next destination is Dapsimni Park. You can get there by crossing the Baebong Overpass and taking the walking path between SK Apartments and Woosung Apartments. Since its establishment in 1998, Dapsimni Park has become a resting place for many citizens, featuring forest walking trails connected by a cloud bridge and fitness facilities.



Leaving Dapsimni Park and heading to Dapsimni Intersection, you will arrive at Dapsimni Traditional Market. It is a small-scale traditional market located in an alley. Near the path descending to Jeonnong-ro, there is also Hyundai Market, famous for dishes like gopchang (grilled intestines) and chicken feet.
