Since May, the barefoot clay trail project has been underway at Hatdeul Ecological Park. As modern people have high expectations for health, it is anticipated that the trail will greatly contribute to improving the health of residents using the path and enhancing living conditions.


Omihwa, the mayor of Hapcheon-eup, said, “The benefits of clay are known to activate the physiological functions of cells in the body and remove toxins. Walking barefoot is also effective for improving digestive function, relieving headaches, reducing fatigue, and enhancing blood circulation.” She added, “The barefoot clay trail, where these two benefits can manifest simultaneously, is expected to improve not only the health of residents using Hapcheoncheon but also their vitality.”



A county official stated, “We will continue to develop facilities aimed at improving the health and quality of life of Hapcheon residents by monitoring their responses to the walking trail.”
