Create an itinerary including Nami Island

Set in the middle of Bukhangang River only 63 km (39 mi) from Seoul, Nami Island provides a popular escape from city life for many locals, especially after the filming of a famous Korean drama. Stroll along the famous path lined with tall metasequoias and enjoy numerous sculptures representing love. Rent an electric bike to explore the supposed gravesite of a 15th-century general, or take a golf cart tour to enjoy the natural surroundings of countless chestnut, poplar, and mulberry trees. Cool off with a motorboat or waterski rental, or jump into the swimming pool. Use our Chuncheon day trip app to arrange your visit to Nami Island and other attractions in Chuncheon.

Nami blows big time. Overcrowded, not pretty, and the perfect example that marketing is more important than substance.

One of the must visit place in South Korea; couples can enjoy some romantic time there with the scenic beauty of nature. Island is few hours travel from the capital city and will cost u some penny. You can avail intercity train to reach the nearest railway station and from there get a taxi to reach the island entrance. From entrance 10 min boat ride will take you to the island and if you are like to be more adventurous and have some extra bugs in your pocket go for the cable car from namsan tower. You can enjoy a 360 degree from a height of 236 m. You can enjoy a quality time in the island and can spend over half a day there. Dorm coffee shops and are available in the island and the best time to visit it is Autumn Season ( October to December).

A lovely place to visit if your in South Korea. It is a year around island park. Beautiful trees and landscapes. If you like nature walking it's perfect. A little fairy takes you to the island in less than 10 minutes. If you have little ones make sure they can hang. Not super child friendly. This is considered a romantic island. It became super famous after the Kpop drama filmed in the 90's.

Beautiful island in the Han River. Take a ferry boat ride over or if more adventurous, ride the zip line to the island. Either way, return by ferry. Same species of trees line several of the roads. Great photo ops. Island known as a popular setting for filmimg Korean drama movies, especially 2002 hit Winter Sonata.

Lots to do and eat/drink. They’ve got a bungee jump on zip line and there’s a bunch of restaurants and cafes within walking distance. There’s a nice walking/biking area around the river. Nice ambiance.

This is an excellent place to relax and enjoy a nice stroll. To get to the island you take a 5 min ride on a ferry or you can zipline to it. The island offers many restaurants, cafes, and photogenic scenery. If you're in search of a more adventurous type of day it also offers many of water activities. The island also offers bike rentals. I would recommend this place for all the seasons.
