    DAY-OF PLAN

    Know the sequence before you go.

    Times from the operator are kept separate from Korea Era planning guidance.
    1. 01
      Choose one named river section

      Taehwa River extends far beyond one pin. Select Samho, the National Garden, a bridge, bird area or another exact access point before calculating distance and transport.

    2. 02
      Match the route to heat, light and mobility

      Outdoor paths do not share one attraction closing time, while parking, visitor buildings, bicycle services, lights and programmes keep separate hours.

    3. 03
      Check riverside controls

      Lower paths and crossings can close when water rises. Never pass a barrier or infer safe access from the weather at a different part of Ulsan.

    TRAVELER FAQ

    No. It marks a representative Nam-gu riverside point. Choose a named section and route to its own access.

    3. Visit flow

    1. 01
      Before routing

      Choose one named river section

      Taehwa River extends far beyond one pin. Select Samho, the National Garden, a bridge, bird area or another exact access point before calculating distance and transport.

    2. 02
      Daylight or early evening

      Match the route to heat, light and mobility

      Outdoor paths do not share one attraction closing time, while parking, visitor buildings, bicycle services, lights and programmes keep separate hours.

    3. 03
      After rain or flood notice

      Check riverside controls

      Lower paths and crossings can close when water rises. Never pass a barrier or infer safe access from the weather at a different part of Ulsan.

    4. Traveler tips

    • Save both the start and finish pin for a linear walk; 'Taehwa River' alone is too broad for a taxi or transit search.
    • Carry water and shade protection because long open sections can be hotter than nearby streets, while winter riverside wind can be stronger.
    • Keep bicycles at pedestrian speed in shared areas and dismount wherever signed, especially near bridges, gardens and wildlife zones.
    • Search “울산 태화강 삼호동” 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.
