Highlights
The Ocheon Bicycle Path is one of Korea’s most rural certification paths, weaving through central regions along five picturesque streams: Ssangcheon, Dalcheon, Seonghwangcheon, Bogangcheon, and Miho Stream.
The route connects Songnisan’s mountain peaks with the Geum River, offering a more rugged, winding terrain compared to river paths like the Hangang or Nakdonggang.
Let’s explore the most notable highlights along the Ocheon Bicycle Path.
Yeonpung Holy Land Cathedral sits at the confluence of history and spirituality, nestled between Ihwa Mountain Pass and Sojo Mountain Pass on the edge of Yeonpung Town (연풍면; map) in the middle of the Saejae Bicycle Path and at the beginning of the Ocheon Bike Path. Once a quiet mountain refuge, it has become a place where visitors can reflect on the sacrifices of early Korean Catholics who endured persecution during the Joseon Dynasty (1392 ~ 1910).
Hapgang Park is located at the confluence of the Geum River and Miho Stream Rivers in Sejong City. Known for camping and relaxation, the park’s name translates to “river junction.”
Hapgang Park is located near the Geum River and Miho Stream. This meeting of rivers forms expansive wetlands, creating habitats for a wide variety of flora and fauna, including migratory birds, fish, and native plants.
Goegang Bridge, or “Goe River Bridge,” spans the Dal Stream (달천; map; Dalcheon) near Goesan Town. Once a vehicle bridge, the now-retired structure hosts light displays for cyclists and pedestrians only.
