She inspects the health of the villagers she visits for medical volunteer work, interacts with them, and grows as an individual. Deokwoo Experience Village offers a beautiful natural setting as a given, but also provides fishing, farming experiences, rice cake making, and craft workshops. It’s one of the renowned “Twelve Winter Sceneries of Jeongseon” in Gangwon Province.

Offering both two- and four-person bikes, riders depart from Gujeol Station and travel 7.2 kilometers along an abandoned railway track to Auraji Station. The tracks pass along the clean river, through a forest, and through old train tunnels decorated with vibrant lights.

The track of Jeongseon Railbike is relatively flat, making it easy for all riders to enjoy the passing scenery in comfort. The full track takes about 30~40 minutes to complete. After arriving, visitors can hop aboard the train that takes riders back to Gujeol Station. There are cafes at Gujeol and Auraji Stations designed to look like a grasshopper and a fish, respectively. These train cafes make for great photos! The Ant Pension also is fun, designed just like an ant.
