About

Set amid the spectacular winter landscape of the Hantangang River, the Cheorwon Hantangang River Ice Trekking Festival is one of Cheorwon’s premier winter celebrations. The festival has been inducted into the Hall of Fame of the Korea Festival Contents Awards and was selected as an Outstanding Festival by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism for 2026–2027. Connected to the Hantangang River Mulwit-gil trekking course, the festival allows visitors to enjoy the river’s breathtaking snowy scenery while taking part in a variety of performances and winter-themed activities held throughout the festival period at the main venue beneath Seungilgyo Bridge. Special events, including the popular “Ttongbaram Altong Road Run," add to the festive atmosphere and excitement.
