The birch forest in Jukpa-ri, Subi-myeon, Yeongyang-gun, is filled with lush greenery brought to life by the warm sunlight. In summer, the harmony of white trunks and green leaves reaches its peak.
Thanks to the dense forest and high elevation, the average temperature in the Yeongyang Birch Forest is about 3 degrees Celsius lower than the outside temperature, offering visitors the added benefit of enjoying forest bathing in natural air conditioning.
In this pristine natural setting, visitors can breathe fresh air, feel the cool breeze, and let go of everyday stress. If you visit Jukpa-ri, Subi-myeon, Yeongyang-gun, you can witness approximately 30 hectares of pure white wilderness.
This forest has grown untouched for over 30 years, resulting in the dense woodland seen today.
With eco-friendly electric vehicles in operation, it is easy to access the forest, making it an ideal destination even for light hiking. As you take each step toward the summit to escape the heat, you will soon be greeted by a landscape that meets the vast sky.
If you take photos against the backdrop of green leaves contrasting with the white bark, you can capture unforgettable moments to conclude your trip.
County Governor O Dochang stated, "For everyone who loves the breeze of nature over air conditioning and nature over concrete, the Yeongyang Birch Forest will offer an unforgettable experience," and added, "This summer, I recommend enjoying a refreshing escape for both body and mind in the Yeongyang Birch Forest."
