The National Micheongol Natural Recreation Forest is a recreation forest located on the slopes of Guryongnyeong between Yangyang-gun and Hongcheon-gun in Gangwon Special Self-Governing Province, and was developed along Micheongol Valley. Micheongol Valley winds along, forming large and small waterfalls in various places. Micheongol Natural Recreation Forest is situated on the southern and eastern slopes of the Taebaek Mountain Range ridges, belonging to the temperate central climate zone, while its alpine areas belong to the temperate northern zone; on both sides of the main valley, diverse tree species are distributed, including birch, ash, Japanese maple, Japanese dogwood, linden, kalopanax, Acer triflorum, and hornbeam. It is a pristine area where dense forests and natural ecosystems are well preserved, a valley of beautiful scenery composed of clear water that winds along raising mist and large and small waterfalls. In addition, lodging and convenience facilities such as a forest culture recreation center, as well as the Seollimwonji temple site and Bulbaragi mineral spring, are located within the recreation forest, giving it great value not only as a forest recreation destination but also as a place for cultural heritage exploration and nature experiences.
