At the foot of Surisan in Gunpo, Chomakgol Ecological Park makes room for wetlands, ponds and woodland in the city. Instead of racing through the park, notice how the different habitats sit next to one another.
A wetland is more than a photo stop
Gyeonggi Cultural Foundation's place guide describes habitat for the narrow-mouthed toad, a bird pond, stream ecology areas and forest trails. Wildlife habitat deserves quiet observation. Stay out of protected water areas and never plan a trip around a guaranteed animal sighting.
Walking is not the same as camping
The park guide also mentions a campsite and children's activity spaces. These do not automatically share the rules for a casual walk. Camping reservations, classes, parking and access restrictions should be checked with the operator separately.
Before you go
The cultural foundation guide gives the address as 216 Chomakgol-gil, Gunpo-si, Gyeonggi-do, with telephone 031-390-4051. This is an older place feature, not a verified November 2026 operating notice. Check the Gunpo park operator for temporary closures, current admission conditions and campsite availability.
