'Five Senses Trekking' is an experiential program that naturally integrates the five senses-seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting, and feeling-into a walking course. This Cheorwon event is designed to allow participants to explore major tourist attractions in Cheorwon along the Hantangang Mulwitgil and Jusangjeolli-gil trails.


The Hantangang Eunhasu Bridge, where the event will be held, is a popular spot offering panoramic views of the Torch Observatory and boasts breathtaking natural scenery, having been designated as a UNESCO Global Geopark in 2020.


Participants will walk along paths that wind through mountains and valleys, enjoying the scenery with their eyes, listening to the sound of the valley stream, breathing in the fresh air, tasting local foods, and experiencing the thrill of walking between cliffs and open air.


Before the event, a variety of prize draws will be held, offering items such as backpacks and hats, and participants will also enjoy special experiences such as free admission to the 'Goseokjeong Flower Field,' one of Cheorwon's representative autumn attractions, adding even more enjoyment to the event.


In addition, all participants will receive a gift package including Cheorwon rice, a portable battery (from a camping goods brand), snacks, and bottled water, as well as a 5,000-won local gift certificate that can be used in the Cheorwon area for purchasing food or local specialties, which is expected to significantly contribute to revitalizing the local economy.



Choi Sunghyun, CEO of the Gangwon Tourism Foundation, stated, "This 'Five Senses Trekking' event is designed to allow participants to fully experience the autumn of Cheorwon with all five senses," adding, "I hope it will be a valuable opportunity to immerse yourself in nature with your loved ones and to deeply appreciate the charm of Gangwon."
