Located in Cheonjang-ri, a name that evokes the imagery of reaching as high as the ceiling, this village is a getaway to the serene Cheonjangho Lake, together forming the picturesque Cheonjang-ri Alps Village. The area is well-equipped for visitors, boasting the Chilgapsan Mountain hiking trail, Korea's longest suspension bridge that crosses Cheonjangho Lake, a center for urban-rural community exchange, and a farm offering well-being experience. Alps Village is renowned for its annual Ice Fountain Festival, a winter highlight that draws visitors eager to behold the snow and ice sculptures and participate in a variety of sledding and ice bobsled activities. Beyond these chilly thrills, visitors can also engage in experiences like zip trekking and crafting traditional bottle gourd art.
