Gapyeong Rail Park 가평레일파크
Gapyeong · Gapyeong Town, Nami & Jara Islands · Fun & activities
Rail bikes are pedal-powered carts that roll along a stretch of disused railway, and this operator runs them over a high steel bridge and through green countryside beside the river. Each cart seats several people, and the pedaling is easy enough that children and older passengers can join in. Rides run in timed departures, so a cart is allotted to you for a specific slot rather than first come, first served.
Wind on the bridge can be strong, so bring a hat and a light layer. Fares and the route can change, and weekend slots often fill, so check the schedule ahead.
The boarding area is on the main road in Gapyeong town, about a five-minute taxi ride from Gapyeong Station and next to the Jatgoeul Market. Use the market-side parking if you drive. (Show a driver: 가평레일파크)
