Mt. Gari
Mt. Gari at 1,051m above sea level is the place that the
sceneries of wide open visual field and outspread Lake Soyang under
the feet from the summit capture the climbers' feet. A small spring
water spouting from walls of rocks under the southern summit of
1st peak flowing to Hongcheongang(riv.) covering 400 ri is a peculiar
source of pride of Mt. Gari to add sense of refreshing to climbers
who is tired in thirst.
The sound of small waterfalls located under the mountain screens
mind of people, from which climbing is started along valleys and
ridgelines. As well, the accidents that the residents in Saemjae
Village facing the summit of Mt. Gari won the 1st and 2nd
lotto lottery as the highest amount within several weeks happened,
so it gets popular as a superfine spot. This area is formed as recreational
forest area by Hongcheon-gun, and Mt. Gari recreational forest was
opened by Hongcheon-gun in July, 95, which is highlighted as a family
recreation place using log cabins, camping site and sports facilities.
