Anyangcheon
Creek is one major branch of Hangang River in Seoul which is starting flowing
down from Kwangkyosan Mountain in Uiwang City in Kyeonggi Province and passing
7 cities in Kyeonggi Province and 7 districts in Seoul and eventually joining
at Mokdong River Junction. Total flowing distance is estimating as 32.5 km
which is comparably longer among other creeks in Korea. Anyhow I will arrange
to trek Anyangcheon Creek Walking Trek (ACWT) from Sinmokdong Station in Seoul

different Courses, total distance as 50 km and total walking hours as 15 hours

The
name of Bisan Daegyeo Bridge was coming from the Bisan Dong Village. The Bisan
word was originated from pure Korean word as “ Nalmi” or “Nalmeo” which could
be translated to Chinese Character as “ Bisan”. As we look down Bibongsan
Mountain (295m Above Sea Level) and Bisan area at the Kwanaksan Mountain (632m

The
Hogyegyeo Bridge was coming from the area name as Hogyedong village which was
