A protected drinking-water reservoir wetland opened only through a short summer guided programme rather than as a drop-in park; the 2026 season ran July 21-August 14 except Mondays, with advance booking, a daily cap and a guided four-kilometre return walk, so outside a current confirmed session the habitat remains closed to casual entry. This catalogue page connects the stop to traveller ratings, current field reports, nearby regional anchors and sourced community corrections.

4. Traveler tips
Subscribe to or revisit the Waterworks notice before summer because this is a short annual programme, not a general park.
Save the exact Tongcheon meeting instruction from the confirmation; navigating only to the wetland coordinate can reach a protected boundary.
Stay with the interpreter and designated route, carry out all litter and never approach water or habitat for a closer photograph.
Search “울주 회야댐 생태습지” 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.
