Promotion of Eco-Friendly Walking Trail Development

Busan Gijang-gun is continuously carrying out projects to create eco-friendly hiking trails and forest roads to enhance forest welfare for residents and increase the utilization rate of forest zones.


Gijang-gun recently announced on the 3rd that it has completed the '2023 Cheolma Forest Road Maintenance Project.'


'Cheolma Forest Road' is a forest road section stretching from Baegunsan to Mangwolsan, frequently visited by local residents as a walking trail within their living area.


The county implemented the '2023 Cheolma Forest Road Maintenance Project' in two phases from February to the end of October this year to prevent natural disasters and resolve residents' inconveniences, completing the maintenance of a pleasant and safe forest road.


In addition, in August, the county completed the 'Our Neighborhood Forest Path' project adjacent to the Gochon-ri apartment complex, as well as the 'Hiking Trail Maintenance Project' for six routes including Ilgwangsan, Mangwolsan, and Seogeundum, and is promoting the 'Jangan (Bulgwangsan) Forest Road Structural Improvement Project,' scheduled for completion in November.

The county is also conducting a 'Hiking Trail Database Construction and Management Plan Service' to establish a systematic forest trail information and management system.

County Governor Jeong Jong-bok said, “We will expand forest zones centered around urban living areas and analyze residents' usage patterns to develop forest trails optimized for hiking,” adding, “We will do our best to provide residents with high-quality forest welfare.”
