Mini Korean Peninsula (Gangwon Paleozoic National Geopark) (한반도지형 (강원고생대 국가지질공원))
This terrain was formed by soil transported from upstream to the curvature of the confluence of two rivers. It is called the “Mini Korean Peninsula” because it resembles the shape of the Korean Peninsula. It is said to have this appearance due to the erosion of the incised stream flowing around the terrain. It takes a 15-minute walk along the pine forest trail for about 800 meters from the parking lot to reach there. The well-maintained trail with many wildflowers and plants creates a welcoming atmosphere. Upon arriving at the observation point, visitors will be amazed by the beautiful curved river and the topography taking the same shape as the Korean Peninsula. Designated as the Gangwon Paleozoic National Geopar, this area has excellent geographical value because it shows the characteristics of the incised mender river as well.
