Gapyeong Rail Park

The male staff who was handling the rail car straight-up hit me and talked to us so rudely. I came with my elderly parents early in the morning — no one else was even there — and he kept rushing us like we were wasting his time. It was -10°C and we still tried our best to move quickly. When my dad’s glove fell, I just tried to pick it up and he slapped my hand and yelled at us. The ride hadn’t even started and no one was waiting behind us. In the end, the glove went missing because he didn’t let us grab it, and when we came back after the ride he still refused to let us look for it and basically chased us away. This whole experience ruined my day. I’m a polite tourist, but I’ve never been treated this badly before. I’m never coming back here, and honestly, if you’re thinking about visiting ——don’t. It’s not worth having your day ruined by staff

It is a very interesting place to go alone or with someone. The individual cars have an accelerator and a brake, so you can slow down to enjoy the scenery. There are carriages for two and four people. It is a nice experience although to get there from Seoul, there is a fast train that goes directly and passes only once a day, but you must have the ticket, otherwise, buying it at the terminal is impossible. The other option is taking 3 subway lines, one that is inside Seoul, and two more on the outskirts. Then, to go to the rail park, it is most convenient to walk, since the urban buses in that area pass approximately every hour and a half. Walking is about 1500 meters, so this last option is convenient. There are several circuits, we chose this one because the landscape seemed more varied to us.

This rail park is the closest to Nami Island so we came here right after. Love that the rail bikes are automated. Only one rider controls the bike, the other pedals are for fun! So just need to peddle a little to start the engine and then it will move on its own after. Lovely scenery. We were very intrigue by how they turn the bikes around. We had a short break of about 10min after the bikes were turned around. There is a little cafe there where we got coffee and hot chocolate to warm ourselves before the return journey. The bike has a cup holder for each rider so we can bring the drink along. The return journey even though on the same track, had a different view and feel as the sun is setting. Great experience.

Gapyeong Rail Park offers a fantastic and refreshing outdoor activity perfect for families and friends. The 4-seater rail bike provides a comfortable and fun way to enjoy the beautiful countryside. Starting from Gapyeong Rail Park station, the route takes you on a picturesque journey through lush greenery, across a bridge overlooking the stunning Bukhangang River. It's a wonderful opportunity for some light exercise while breathing in the fresh air, making it both enjoyable and good for your well-being. The short break at Gangchon Rail Park station is a nice pause before the return ride. Overall, it's a highly recommended experience for anyone looking to connect with nature and create lasting memories.

I loved this park! The views are amazing and picturesque! We visited this park on the start of Spring 2025. There's a few people waiting for the Rail bike. But we didn't wait long. The rail bikes are stable and safe. It is run by electricity with the assistance of your pedals. There are seat belts on every seats, you can seat 4 people in each rail bike. There are Cherry blossom along the path, some street crossings, mountains, and lakes. And on the halfway mark, you can go down the rails and have a quick rest. There clean restroom and a coffee shop. You could also buy the pictures that they have taken earlier in the ride. Overall, we had a great experience.
