The trail, themed 'The Breath of Clay, A Path Where Art Blossoms', is an 8-kilometer-long walking path. Its distinguishing feature is that it is not just a simple walking trail; visitors can also enjoy a variety of experiences that reflect the local character, such as pottery-making activities, exploring the ceramic traditional market, and appreciating artworks.
To commemorate the completion of the trail, the city is running a special challenge until August 31 through the mobile stamp tour platform 'INAVI Stamp, Orda'. In this event, participants start at the Sagimakgol parking lot, follow the village road and Hakamcheon stream, and collect a completion stamp at the final destination, Yes Park, after walking approximately 3.7 kilometers. Along the way, they can explore two ceramic villages and enjoy their journey.
Kim Kyunghee, the mayor of Icheon, stated, "The Seolbong Ceramic Trail is a new walking tour route that showcases the identity of Icheon as a city of ceramics where tradition and modernity coexist," and added, "We will continue to develop it as a cultural tourism content that both citizens and visitors can participate in and enjoy together."
