DAY-OF PLAN
Know the sequence before you go.
Times from the operator are kept separate from Korea Era planning guidance.
01
Choose the correct end of the 3 km trail
The route runs between Bongseonsa entrance and the Korea National Arboretum gate. Decide whether the walk is one-way or return before selecting transport and parking.
02
Check the arboretum and royal tomb separately
The forest trail is not an admission contract for the National Arboretum, Bongseonsa or Gwangneung Royal Tomb. Each destination keeps independent reservations, closures and final entry.
03
Use weather and daylight as the practical clock
The tourism record does not publish a standalone trail timetable. Check forest restrictions, surface condition and the return connection before setting out.
Is the forest trail inside the National Arboretum ticket?
Do not assume so. The trail links the Bongseonsa side and arboretum gate, while the arboretum has separate admission rules.
Is the catalogue pin the only entrance?
No. The published route is linear and has different end points. Choose the exact start and return plan.
Are the full 3 km step-free?
The audited source does not guarantee that. Confirm the current accessible section, surfaces and return distance before travel.
Are the operating details for Gwangneung Forest Trail live?
The displayed guidance was checked September 8, 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.

3. Visit flow
01
Before Namyangju
Choose the correct end of the 3 km trail
The route runs between Bongseonsa entrance and the Korea National Arboretum gate. Decide whether the walk is one-way or return before selecting transport and parking.
02
Before combining stops
Check the arboretum and royal tomb separately
The forest trail is not an admission contract for the National Arboretum, Bongseonsa or Gwangneung Royal Tomb. Each destination keeps independent reservations, closures and final entry.
03
On the trail
Use weather and daylight as the practical clock
The tourism record does not publish a standalone trail timetable. Check forest restrictions, surface condition and the return connection before setting out.
4. Traveler tips
Save both 광릉숲길 and the intended start or finish; a single centre pin cannot plan the return.
Reserve the National Arboretum separately if it is part of the day, and protect its final-entry time.
After rain, verify surfaces and wear shoes suitable for damp woodland rather than assuming continuous dry decking.
Search “광릉숲길 경기도 남양주시 진접읍 봉선사길 193-13” 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.
Is the forest trail inside the National Arboretum ticket?
Do not assume so. The trail links the Bongseonsa side and arboretum gate, while the arboretum has separate admission rules.
Is the catalogue pin the only entrance?
No. The published route is linear and has different end points. Choose the exact start and return plan.
