DAY-OF PLAN
Know the sequence before you go.
Times from the operator are kept separate from Korea Era planning guidance.
01
Choose a named lake access rather than navigating to open water
Damyangho is a large working reservoir surrounded by separate roads, the Chuwolsan tourist area, Yongmaru trails and water facilities. Use the official tourism-point coordinate and a named parking or trailhead.
02
Stay within the chosen public viewpoint or signed trail
A reservoir shoreline is not one continuous promenade. Do not enter dam works, service roads, steep banks or water without explicit permission, and follow any maintenance or water-level barrier.
03
Reconfirm the rural return before extending along the shore
The tourism record gives a broad 09:00-18:00 visitor reference, but individual trails and facilities differ. Protect daylight, weather and the last practical bus or taxi.
No. It is an official tourism destination point; choose the named trail, viewpoint or facility needed for the final route.
Why does Korea Era not use the current TourAPI coordinate?
That source record currently places Damyangho outside Korea. The catalogue uses Damyang County's official tourism map coordinate instead.
Are the operating details for Damyangho Lake live?
The displayed guidance was checked August 30, 2026, but it is not a live operator feed. Open the linked official guide and a Korean map again on the day because hours, closures, tickets and transport can change.
Can a traveller correct this page?
Yes. Submit a sourced community wiki correction or a current field report; proposed facts are reviewed before becoming canonical information.

01
Before travel
Choose a named lake access rather than navigating to open water
Damyangho is a large working reservoir surrounded by separate roads, the Chuwolsan tourist area, Yongmaru trails and water facilities. Use the official tourism-point coordinate and a named parking or trailhead.
02
At the lake
Stay within the chosen public viewpoint or signed trail
A reservoir shoreline is not one continuous promenade. Do not enter dam works, service roads, steep banks or water without explicit permission, and follow any maintenance or water-level barrier.
03
Before leaving
Reconfirm the rural return before extending along the shore
The tourism record gives a broad 09:00-18:00 visitor reference, but individual trails and facilities differ. Protect daylight, weather and the last practical bus or taxi.
4. Traveler tips
Navigate to a named visitor area or Yongmaru trailhead, never to the visual centre of the lake.
Download the route and save a return contact before leaving Damyang town.
Treat barriers around water infrastructure as firm even when a viewpoint appears close beyond them.
Search “담양호 관광지 금성산성길 366” in Naver Map or Kakao Map and confirm the exact entrance and return route.
Recheck weather, trail or garden closures, last entry and seasonal conditions before departure.
The audited coordinate identifies the named destination, but the final gate, parking area and step-free entrance still need a live route check.
No. It is an official tourism destination point; choose the named trail, viewpoint or facility needed for the final route.
