White Village, located on the banks of Daehwanggang River, boasts of wonderful views in a natural environment. The scenery around the river changes picturesquely every season against the background of the mountains and the sky: light green trees and cherry blossoms in spring; cool water play in summer; dazzling tinted leaves in autumn; and snowy scenes in winter. The environment is so clean that one might encounter wild ducks, elks, or even an otter while walking around the accommodation. If you enjoy fishing, it is a great idea to take your tools in the Daehwanggang River. The Daehwanggang Trail is also close to White Village. Including paths around mountains as well as ones around the river, the trail takes about 1 hour and 20 minutes to complete and is mountain bicycle-friendly (MTB), about 1 km-long stretching from the Amnok Recreation Area to the Seomjin River. Major attractions in Gokseong such as Seomjingang Train Village, Taeansa Temple, and Jo Tae Il Poetry Memorial Hall are about 15-20 minutes away by car. The Zipline, which opened recently opposite the Gajeong Station, is only about 3 4 minutes away.
