Haneul-gil Trail (Skywalk Trail)

Haneul-gil Trail is a mountain road spreading around the top of Baegunsan Mountain surrounding High 1 Resort in Gohan-eup, Jeongseon-gun, Gangwon-do. The only mountain road in Korea located at an elevation of over 1,100 m, it boasts of its beauty as much as it has a nickname, "Untan-godo trail," which means the road in the highland with clouds spreading out like a carpet. This used to be a road where coals were carried out in the past, however, High 1 Resort redesigned and transformed it as tourism resource after coal mines were abandoned. The Skywalk is divided into two courses, one for walk and another for trail. Courses vary ranging from 15 minutes to more than three hours, which is for trekking, therefore visitors can choose a path suitable for them.

Characteristic: A place where all your family can enjoy the beauty of Jeongseon
