Juknokwon Bamboo Forest

A cool, walkable bamboo forest in Damyang with shaded trails and pavilions.

Why go

Juknokwon is a lush bamboo forest in Damyang, a region long famous for bamboo, laced with shaded walking trails and pavilions.

Sunlight filtering through the tall green stalks keeps it wonderfully cool in summer and endlessly photogenic year-round.

It pairs well with Damyang's Metasequoia-lined road, another of the area's signature scenes.

Good to know

• Summer visitors love the shade — the grove stays cooler than the surrounding area.
• Combine it with the nearby Metasequoia Road for a classic Damyang pairing.
• Try local bamboo dishes, like daetongbap (rice steamed in bamboo).
• Wear comfortable shoes for the gentle uphill trails.
