the best place for healing-cation near Seoul
Gapyeong is only an hour away from Seoul by train or car. Many K-pop idols listed Gapyeong as one of their favourite place to go for a healing trip. There’re a lot of lake-side pension in this area.
It is indeed beautiful! Very calm and peaceful, a perfect getaway from the bustling city. There is various tourist attraction we can go here, such as Nami Island, Petite France, Garden of the morning calm and many more.
We went for 1 day trip only, there is a hop-on hop-off bus getting around the tourist attractions. Our day trip itinerary is: Gapyeong station > Petite France > Railbike > Nami Island > Gapyeong station

The Gangchon Rail Park, built on the discontinued train line is the largest rail bike course in Korea. From the popular Gangchon Rail Park, visitors pedal on the 2/4-seater rail bike to enjoy breathtaking mountainous countryside and Bukhan River scenery, uniquely different in each season.

Experience the Rail Bike in Gapyeong ✨️
Welcome to Gapyeong Rail Park!
There are many Rail parks in Korea and one of the most beautiful I found is this Gapyeong one.
You need to do reservation beforehand as they run out of tickets very quickly. Their site has a very good description and directions to reach here without any problem.
There are 2 kinds of bikes, one with 2 people and other with 4 people capacity. They are electric, you just need to paddle a few times and then the electric engine kicks off making it very easy to ride and no exhaustion at all.
The scenes around the track are just marvelous and we were lucky to find the weather very misty. It appeared that the clouds had really come so down and descended the mountains that they were touching the water!
We crossed a bridge, a tunnel of trees on both sides and it is said that during spring this track is completely covered with cherry blossom 🌸
Do add it to your itinerary if u are visiting Namiseom :)
