Go Camping School has been operated since 2022 under the slogan ‘Clean GO!, Safe GO!, Delicious GO!, Enjoy GO!’ to promote proper camping culture.

This year, it will be held for 2 nights and 3 days from September 26 to 28 at the Taebaeksan Sodo Campground, which was selected as a public excellent campground in two categories, ‘Barrier-Free’ and ‘Eco-Friendly,’ in 2023.

The Tourism Organization will operate safe camping education with camping experts, tent installation lessons, and upcycling experience programs, and will select a ‘Low Carbon Camping Master’ who uses the least disposable products to spread eco-friendly camping. Regional win-win events such as a cooking contest using local agricultural products and a visit to the Taebaek traditional market will also be held.

Anyone aged 19 or older can apply for the ‘2024 Go Camping School.’ Through a lottery, 35 teams (up to 120 people) will be selected and announced on September 5. The participation fee of 20,000 KRW per team will be returned on-site in local love gift certificates to encourage consumption in the region.

Joo Sang-geon, head of the Leisure Tourism Team at the Korea Tourism Organization, said, “Go Camping School has received great response from campers, recording a high competition rate of over 20 to 1 every year,” and added, “We plan to continue promoting various projects to spread eco-friendly camping culture.”
