The Nakdong River Railway Bridge was originally constructed in 1918 and served as part of the Gyeongjeon railway line for nearly a century.
The Wine Cave was created by renovating a decommissioned tunnel that was part of the original rail route.
The park features a 15-meter-high observation tower that provides a panoramic view of the river and the surrounding valley.
The wine produced and sold in the cave is specifically derived from local Gimhae raspberries.
The rail bike track spans exactly 3 kilometers in total length including the bridge crossing.
The park's centerpiece bridge measures 475 meters in length, providing a direct view of the river surface below.
Gimhae Nakdong River Rail Park is a repurposed railway attraction that allows visitors to pedal rail bikes across a historic iron bridge spanning the Nakdong River. The park utilizes a section of the old Gyeongjeon Line, including the 1-kilometer-long Nakdong River Railway Bridge. A highlight of the site is the Wine Cave, a repurposed railway tunnel converted into a climate-controlled space featuring local wine exhibits and displays. The park grounds include a stationary steam locomotive and observation decks overlooking the water. Visitors can pedal their own four-person rail bikes along the tracks for approximately 3 kilometers round-trip. The site is situated within the rural landscape of Saengnim-myeon, Gimhae. It serves as an example of industrial heritage restoration in South Korea.
The mid-point of the Nakdong River Bridge offers the most unobstructed views of the river and the iron truss infrastructure.
Reserve your rail bike ticket in advance online as time slots can sell out quickly, especially on weekends.
Bring a light jacket for the Wine Cave, as the interior temperature remains cool year-round regardless of the external weather.
Ensure your footwear is secure, as you will be responsible for pedaling the rail bike manually throughout the journey.
Do not attempt to walk along the active rail sections outside of the designated bike path; avoid wearing flip-flops or open-toed shoes that may interfere with pedaling.
Closed on certain Mondays for maintenance.
Avoid standing up or exiting the rail bike while it is on the tracks; follow staff instructions regarding spacing between bikes.
