‘Green Footprints on the Trail’ is a stamp tour program where you collect 25 stamps by answering questions about climate, environment, and Yangcheon-gu ecology that appear at specific points while walking the trail. In the process of solving the questions, you can acquire basic knowledge about environmental conservation and enjoy the benefits of exercise.
To participate, scan the QR codes installed throughout the Sinjeongsan Trail and Yangcheon Park with your phone and access the program. The Sinjeongsan Trail program, which has been upgraded to version 2.0, is divided into two types: the ‘Environmental Course’ that covers climate and environmental issues and the ‘Ecological Course’ that covers ecological issues related to Yangcheon-gu. Participants answer questions at 25 check-in locations for each program, and if they succeed in their chosen experience, they can participate in other games. The entire course is displayed on the information board so that participants can know where they are.
‘Yangcheon Park’ will operate the newly developed eco-tearing (ecology+orienteering) game ‘Seed of Life Exploration Team’. You can have more fun and feel the importance of the Earth’s environment by solving various types of problems such as quizzes and puzzles at 11 locations along the Yangcheon Park walking trail and collecting 5 seeds of life.
The district is also holding a ‘Footprints Drawn on the Perimeter’ participation event. Participants who participate in the program and obtain stamps or items (seeds) will be given a mobile convenience store gift certificate or mushroom making kit and 25 types of plant cards on a first-come, first-served basis each month.
Meanwhile, the Sinjeongsan Dulle-gil is a 2.7km course that circles Sinjeongsan Mountain, and is composed of a ‘barrier-free deck path (2.4km)’ with a gradient of less than 8% and a gentle ‘dirt path (0.3km)’, so that people with disabilities, seniors, and strollers can comfortably tour the forest. In addition, Yangcheon Park is considered a representative urban park in Yangcheon-gu, with a harmonious combination of a walking path, a stream, a playground, a playground, a book shelter, and exercise facilities surrounding the central plaza.
Yangcheon-gu District Mayor Lee Ki-jae said, “I hope that many people will show interest and participate in this leisure program around the forest path where you can practice carbon neutrality and observe representative plants of Yangcheon-gu while walking along the forest path and park,” and added, “We will continue to discover and promote diverse park leisure programs in the future to create a city filled with vitality in everyday life.”
