More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step out of an air-conditioned minivan into a cold, open space where history presses close: the fields and postures of the Korean Demilitarized Zone. Wind moves across concrete relics at Imjingak, and the Dora Observatory’s binoculars frame a landscape divided by politics. Later, high on Mt. Gamaksan, a 150‑meter tower-less suspension bridge stretches across a valley like a quiet dare, the planks humming underfoot.

Conservation
Restricted access has turned parts of the DMZ into de facto wildlife refuges; visitors should stay on paths, avoid littering, and follow guides to protect sensitive habitats.
