Old Daegwallyeong Road is a historic site in Eoheul-ri, Seongsan-myeon, Gangneung-si, Gangwon-do. This old road used to serve as the trade and transportation hubs connecting Yeongdong and Yeongseo regions during the Goryeo period and Joseon period. With the breathtaking nature’s scenery in Daegwallyeong, Old Daegwallyeong Road has preserved its original shape since being designated as Scenic site No.74 in 2010.

Old Daegwallyeong Road is a forest-covered walking trail starting from the spot called “Banjeong” after Daegwallyeong pass to “Daegwallyeong Museum”. It is an around 2-hour trekking. It is also a very popular driving road visited by couples or tourists. Going out of Hoenggye Interchange in Yeongdong Highway and right before going into Daegwallyeong-myeon, Pyeongchang-gun, there is a sign board reading “Old Daegwallyong Road” standing. From here, drivers can enjoy beautiful nature’s views behind the wheel.

In the middle of the Daegwallyeong pass, there is a fork that divides into a route that goes down all the way from Banjeong, and another one that goes up to Daegwallyeong Museum or Gamagol Village. Old Daegwallyeong Road will present tourists with “healing trip” that shows nature’s views beautifully changing every season. In autumn, fantastic colorful leaves welcome tourists. Therefore, tourists and drivers can feel romantic and refreshed with a wave of red and yellow leaves along with the road.
