The rail bike track utilizes the historical tracks of the Jungang Line, which originally connected Seoul and Gyeongju.
The route includes a total of six tunnels, each themed with different visual and audio installations.
Riders transition to a tourist train for the final leg of the experience, as the rail bikes do not return to the station under their own power.
The course crosses the Seomgang River via multiple iron girder bridges preserved from the original railway infrastructure.
Wonju Rail Park is a rail bike attraction built on a decommissioned section of the Jungang Line railway. The course stretches approximately 7 kilometers, beginning at Ganhyeon Station and ending at Pyeong-dong. Visitors pedal custom four-seat rail bikes through tunnels and across bridges along the Seomgang River. A significant portion of the route involves a downhill slope, reducing the physical exertion required for riders. Upon reaching the end of the track, visitors transfer to a tourist train that transports them back to the starting point. The route features interactive tunnels, including one illuminated with neon light art. The facility is situated within the Ganhyeon Tourist Area, which also hosts the Sogeumsan Suspension Bridge.
The neon-lit tunnels provide the most unique lighting for photos, while the river-crossing bridges offer the best landscape views.
Secure your belongings, especially mobile phones, as the rail bike motion can cause items to fall into the tracks.
The rail bikes operate in pairs or quads; solo travelers may need to join a group or wait for a compatible bike configuration.
Bring light layers as the temperature inside the tunnels is significantly cooler than the outside air.
Do not attempt to pedal backwards or stop abruptly inside the tunnels, as this poses a collision risk for following bikes.
Operates year-round but may close during extreme weather conditions such as heavy snow or severe rainfall; check local alerts before travel.
Avoid obstructing the track for riders behind you by maintaining consistent speed; remain seated while the bike is in motion.
