Gumi Ecoland at 195 Indeok 1-gil, Sandong-eup, Gumi, has forest facilities and a monorail. A Korea Tourism Organization accessible-site page revised in May 2026 describes one adapted monorail car with a rotating seat that enables a wheelchair user to transfer into the car; it is not described as a ride that secures a wheelchair in place. The page lists four accessible parking bays in the upper lot and ten in the lower lot, slope-signage between the lower lot and entrance, accessible toilets on floors 1 and 2, and adapted woodcraft equipment. Listed monorail hours are 10:00–16:30 in winter and 10:00–17:30 in summer, subject to change. Confirm boarding assistance, actual running and bookings directly.
