A 333-metre elevated steel artwork with 717 steps and a strict independent gate: current seasonal hours, first-Monday closure, rain, wind at 8 m/s or more, 150-person capacity and the 110-centimetre minimum-height rule can all override a generally open Hwanho Park.

    Yeongildae Beach

    Pohang's continuously accessible urban sand-and-pavilion waterfront overlooking Yeongil Bay and the steelworks; designated swimming, lifeguards, showers, rentals, festivals, water quality, surf and marine safety remain seasonal or live controls rather than year-round beach promises.

    Pohang Ship Experience Hall

    A retired 1,200-ton naval patrol ship beside the canal, currently listed 09:00–18:00; steep ladders, narrow passageways, deck exposure, maintenance, group control and shipboard mobility make the vessel a distinct decision from the continuously accessible canal promenade.

    A public far-eastern peninsula square joining the paired Hands of Harmony, lighthouse district and sunrise horizon; outdoor access does not keep the lighthouse museum, exhibition rooms, shops, toilets or event services open, and New Year crowd controls, wind, waves and coastal darkness remain separate decisions.

    TRAVELER FAQ

    Answers worth checking before you leave.

    Can Space Walk close while the park itself is open?

    Yes. The structure has its own weather, capacity and maintenance controls. Rain or wind at 8 m/s and above can trigger closure.

    Can a child under 110 cm enter with an adult?

    The city lists visitors under 110 cm as unable to enter. Check the gate for current family rules and use the surrounding park as the fallback.

    Are the operating details for Space Walk at Hwanho Park live?

    The displayed guidance was checked September 1, 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.

    4. Traveler tips

    • Do not judge operation from street-level weather alone; the elevated structure is controlled for wind at the installation.
    • Wear shoes that grip the open metal walking surface and secure loose items before entering.
    • Keep a Hwanho Park or Yeongildae fallback so a safety closure does not waste the whole Pohang stop.
    • Search “스페이스워크 경상북도 포항시 북구 두호동 산8” in Naver Map or Kakao Map and confirm the exact entrance and return route.
    • Hours, admission, closures and programme schedules can change; use the official source 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.
