Gongju City states that new Paleolithic-themed lookout and slide facilities at Seokjangni Museum are in a free trial from October 1 through December 31, 2026. The lookout operates 10:00–17:00; the slide operates 10:00–17:00 in October–November and 10:00–16:00 in December. The slide schedule pauses 12:00–13:00 for lunch and 14:30–15:00 for equipment checks and breaks. The city notice does not explicitly apply these same pauses to the lookout. The slide is limited to ages 7–65, height 130–200 cm and weight up to 110 kg; wind and rain can stop operations. Do not confuse free trial use with normal museum admission.
