The rail bike track was constructed as part of the redevelopment of the former Incheon International Airport seaside embankment.
The total round-trip distance of 5.6 kilometers is designed to take roughly 40 to 50 minutes at a leisurely pace.
The track features an automated turn-around point that pivots the rail bikes 180 degrees without requiring manual maneuvering.
During low tide, the expansive mudflats visible from the track serve as a significant habitat for migratory birds.
The track is purpose-built to provide a vantage point for viewing both the Incheon Bridge and the sunset over the Yeongjong Sea.
The Yeongjong Sea Side Rail Bike is a 5.6-kilometer round-trip track that offers unobstructed coastal views of Incheon’s western shoreline. The course runs along the embankment of Yeongjong Island, allowing riders to pedal directly adjacent to the Yellow Sea. The path passes through artificial waterfalls and landscaped park areas, including a segment featuring sculptures and decorative lighting. Passengers ride in four-seater manual pedal carts that utilize the former rail tracks of the island. The route is entirely flat, making it accessible for casual cyclists and families. Throughout the journey, visitors can spot the Incheon Bridge and the skyline of Songdo International City in the distance. The facility is situated within the larger Yeongjong Seaside Park complex.
