Explanation

Wondae-ri Birch Forest near Inje-eup is an exemplar of natural eco-tourism, established by planting 690,000 birch trees across 138 hectares from 1974 to 1995. Today, 25 hectares of this expansive area serve as a forest experience center tailored for children. Two main trails are available: the Wonjeong Forest Trail, with an 80-minute walking time, and the shorter Wondae Forest Trail, taking about an hour to traverse. The trails lead hikers through a dense forest of birch trees, some over two decades old, whose stark white trunks reach skyward, creating an ethereal atmosphere. This forest not only offers a journey through its unique ecosystem but also provides aesthetic pleasure and educational opportunities, securing its status as a distinguished eco-tourism site in Inje-gun.
In winter, the snow-blanketed landscape alongside the stark white birches creates a picturesque tableau, making it a favored spot for photography. For families, especially those with children, the forest is a treasure trove of educational fun, with activities available at the Children’s Forest Experience Center, including Forest Classroom and Indian House, fostering a connection with nature.

Note: Some areas may close temporarily to prevent forest fires and preserve the ecosystem, so please check availability before visiting.

◎ Travel information to meet Hallyu’s charm
This location was the romantic date spot for Jin-ah (played by Son Ye-jin) and Joon-hee (played by Jung Hae-in) in the TV series "Something in the Rain." It also served as the setting for a sorrowful farewell for Crown Prince Lee Chang (played by Ju Ji-hoon) in "Kingdom 2." Both scenes, filmed in winter, highlighted the stunning beauty of the snow-covered landscape.
