Jeongdongjin Railbike
One of the major summer destinations in Gangneung is Jeongdongjin Beach, which stretches over 250 m and has three major swimming spots: in front of Jeongdongjin Railway Station, at Moraeshigae Park, and at the Jeongdongjin Seawalls.
2015 Wow Korea Supporters stopped over the Jeongdongjin Station to try out one of its newest and most popular attractions - the Jeongdongjin Railbike.
Jeongdongjin Railbike is a 5.1 km track that runs along the beach between the station and the Sandglass Park. Two types of rail bikes are in operation: 2-person and 4-person bikes. Both can be set to run on auto mode for 40 min, though manual pedaling is also possible. Cameras were set and timed to take photos in scenic locations along the track so be prepared to strike a pose.
