On the 19th, Seosan City in South Chungcheong Province completed and opened the long-awaited 'Seosan Hanwoo Ranch Well-being Trail' for its citizens.


The city held an opening ceremony for the Seosan Hanwoo Ranch Well-being Trail on the same day in Yonghyeon-ri, Unsan-myeon, with more than 100 attendees including Mayor Lee Wan-seop and local residents of Unsan-myeon.


The creation and opening of the well-being trail at Seosan Hanwoo Ranch, often called the "Alps of Seosan" for its exotic and beautiful scenery, has been a long-standing wish of citizens for over a decade.


The city, in continuous cooperation with local residents, began construction last year and completed it in December of this year.


The Seosan Hanwoo Ranch Well-being Trail, which cost a total of 5.6 billion KRW, features a 2.1 km deck path across the grassland, a scenic viewpoint at the summit, a parking lot accommodating 112 vehicles, restrooms, and other convenience facilities.

Additionally, to thoroughly prevent the outbreak and spread of livestock infectious diseases due to the opening, various quarantine facilities such as personal and vehicle disinfection stations have been installed.


The city expects that the opening of this well-being trail, which was also a pledge of the 8th popularly elected administration, will receive a great response from tourists visiting the Hanwoo Ranch.


The well-being trail is open from sunrise to sunset, but operations may vary depending on weather conditions such as rain.


Mayor Lee Wan-seop said, "Although the Seosan Hanwoo Ranch has boasted exotic and beautiful scenery, it has been closed due to quarantine issues. I am pleased that we can now offer this attraction to tourists," adding, "I expect this place to become a new mecca for tourism in Seosan."
