Peace Trail

Yeoncheon Peace Trail is connected to existing lanes through rice paddies, fields, and river banks, trails along the Demilitarized Zone, and three trails (65.6km) that connect Jangnamgyo Bridge and Inverted Icicles in Yeoncheon-gun. The average distance of each course is about 20 kilometers, and an adult with normal physical strength can finish each course in about four to five hours on foot.
