Hoedong Reservoir Trail: A Lakeside Walk in the Heart of the City (회동수원지)

Hoedong Reservoir offers a quiet lakeside getaway just a short drive from the city. A neatly maintained trail wraps around the water, making it an easy, relaxing walk for all visitors. As you follow the path, you’ll notice how the scenery changes with the seasons and enjoy sweeping views of Geumjeongsan Mountain in the distance. You’ll also find a stretch of soft red-clay path perfect for a refreshing barefoot walk, and a cypress woodland trail where you can breathe in the fresh forest air. Once you reach the Oryundae Observatory, the entire reservoir spreads out below, with a view that even resembles the shape of the Korean Peninsula. If you’re looking to step away from your routine, Hoedong Reservoir offers just the right dose of nature and tranquility to truly unwind.
