Ganhyun Tourist Site in Wonju, Gangwon-do, is a harmonious blend of spectacular gorge scenery where the Seom River and Samsancheon Stream meet, and modern leisure facilities.

It is especially popular for its thrilling experience facilities, including the suspension bridge and boardwalk, under the name 'Sogeumsan Grand Valley'.

In November, the late autumn season, you can enjoy both activities and romantic night views while admiring the bizarre rock formations of Sogeumsan Mountain.

The most representative symbol of Ganhyun Tourist Site is the Sogeumsan Suspension Bridge.

Installed at a height of about 100m above the ground with a length of 200m, you can feel a thrilling sensation while crossing the bridge.

From the suspension bridge, you can enjoy a panoramic view of the fantastic scenery of the blue waters of the Seom River and the bizarre rocks of Sogeumsan Mountain.

On windy days, the bridge sways more, providing an even more dynamic experience.

In addition to the suspension bridge, the Sogeumsan Grand Valley course features the Sogeum Boardwalk and the Ulleong Bridge.

The Sogeum Boardwalk is about 360m long and is installed next to a steep cliff, allowing you to experience a thrilling high-altitude walk.

The Ulleong Bridge boasts a length of over twice the existing suspension bridge (404m) and offers a thrill that will make your heart pound, as its name suggests.

Walking along these facilities, you can closely observe the magnificent natural beauty of the Sogeumsan Gorge in three dimensions.

At night, Ganhyun Tourist Site boasts a large-scale night view called 'Naora Show'.

Media facades, lighting, and lasers are used along the riverside promenade and Samsancheon Bridge to create a fantastic spectacle of light.

Holograms and media art unfolding against the backdrop of bizarre cliffs and streams create a dreamy atmosphere that is completely different from the daytime.

Even in November, during the winter season, night view lighting and media facade screenings continue, allowing you to create special memories until late.

The Wonju Rail Bike, which utilizes the abandoned Jungang Line railway tracks, operates around Ganhyun Tourist Site.

You can spend a relaxing time enjoying the beautiful natural scenery of the Seom River unfolding along the abandoned railway tracks.

The rail bike adds fun with unique themed events in each tunnel section, so you won't be bored.

Even if you don't go to the hiking course to the top of Sogeumsan Mountain, you can enjoy a light healing trek on the deck promenade along the riverside.
