Hongseong County in Chungnam has created the 'Four-Color Healing Barefoot Trail' in the Hongseong Forest Playground section of the Hongjueupseong Millennium Travel Road, receiving positive feedback from both residents and tourists.

Last year, the county built a 100-meter barefoot healing loess trail in this area, which was well received. This year, an additional 100 meters of loess trail was extended and installed.

The county also added themed sections such as the Sea Sand Trail, Pine Tree Trail, and Stone Acupressure Trail, completing a total of 400 meters of the Four-Color Healing Barefoot Trail harmonized with nature. The trail is now open for use by residents and tourists.

The loess trail is said to help strengthen the immune system through contact with the earth's energy, while the sea sand trail is known for its foot massage effects and fatigue relief.

Additionally, the pine tree trail is rich in phytoncides, aiding in mental and physical relaxation, and the stone acupressure trail is reported to promote blood circulation and activate metabolism through foot acupressure, attracting an increasing number of visitors.

Kim Taegi, Head of the Culture and Tourism Division, said, "We plan to make this nature-friendly healing barefoot trail near the city center a tourist attraction that everyone can enjoy," adding, "We will continue to expand convenience facilities for visitors and develop unique seasonal programs to make this a healing space in everyday life."
