Yangsan City’s Ungsang Branch Office recently announced that Solbat Hwangtotgil has rapidly gained popularity as a local attraction since its completion in July, drawing numerous visitors.

Solbat Hwangtotgil is a 260-meter-long yellow soil path, ranging from 0.8 to 1.5 meters wide, located in Solbat Park within Ungsang Sports Park. The path is equipped with a foot washing area and a wet yellow soil experience center, offering a unique experience for visitors.

The path, surrounded by dense pine trees, provides a serene environment with amenities like pergolas, benches, and exercise equipment, making it an ideal spot for a forest bath and barefoot walking. In just two months since its opening, the site has attracted an average of 300 visitors per day.

Plans to expand facilities, such as pavilions and benches, are also in the works to ensure that visitors can enjoy the area comfortably and safely.
