Gangchon Rail Bike Experience (Gyeonggang Station Course)

The railpark looks simple and the bike looks old. But the experience definitely worths it. If you are staying in Seoul, the railpark is not near the Seoul city at all. You need to plan ahead for the travel. Especially if you want to take advantage of the intercity ITX trains. Make sure you reserve those ITX train tickets ahead of time, probably should do it at the same time when you reserve the railpark tickets. I made the mistakes of not reserving the ITX train tickets first, and cannot get those tickets on the day before.

It’s a good choice for group activities, but it’s actually quite tiring🤣 The four of us girls were so exhausted from going there🥲

Great concept, but I would only recommend to do this during peak spring or fall time. During my visit the trees and grass were all brown, so not much to take in. However, the mountain views were great. The tunnels were a fun addition, but could use some work. specifically the tunnel with the bubbles. They take your photo towards the end of the ride and it is optional to get it printed (not included in the price. you still have to pay for the print). There is also a very slow train ride at the end which takes you to free busses that take you back to the entrance of the facility. I would skip this if you're only visiting for a few days since it's very far from seoul, about 2 hour train ride with transfers.

It was a fun experience but getting there can be quite tricky. We ended up going to the wrong station so we didn't get to use the ticket we booked here and had to purchase another ticket on site. It's the same facility though. Just the other end of the trail so I wonder why we weren't allowed to use our Klook booking. My bad for not asking but it was a long trip and no longer wanted to argue

I bought a manual thus have a good exercise and really fun.

I met other tourists on the way and discovered that there are other railway bicycle stations that provide automated bicycles. You can choose electric or pedals. However, Jingjiang Station only provides pedals. Unless you are fully confident in your physical fitness, it is not recommended. Come to this site to get started. After completing the journey, it felt like my feet were not mine. It is also recommended that Klook provide more information on whether all rail bikes are electric or fully pedaled. Thanks.

Better directions to the location needed. We turned up at the wrong place and had to repurchase new tickets. The ride itself was enjoyable though.

Please be reminded to double check the address because there’s two different place.

We really enjoyed this. Loved the rides with awesome view along the journey. Just that we can't find the free bus luckily there is Jade Garden Tour bus at the train station and we manage to get there.

Easy to use..Hassle free and good rides for family bonding
