Namparang-gil Course 48

About the route

This section starts from Hadong Songnim Park and continues to Jinwol Elementary School in Jinwon-myeon, Gwangyang. Like the Seomjingang River section, it is a walking tour where you can enjoy the beautiful natural scenery of the Seomjingang River along the path built along the Seomjingang River. However, while the Hadong section is a specialized section that can be used by both bicycles and walkers, the Seomjingang River path in the Gwangyang section is created as a section for cyclists, so walkers need to be careful during seasons when there are many bicycle users. In spring, it boasts beautiful scenery with beautiful plum blossoms and cherry blossoms, and is characterized as a section where you can experience various beauties depending on the season.
