Google Map
One of Korea’s scenic cross-country bike routes, the Yeongsan River Bike Path begins at the Yeongsan River Dam Bike Certification Center .
To reach the starting point from Seoul, we recommend taking a KTX train to Mokpo (목포). From Mokpo KTX Station, take a local bus to the Yeongsan River Dam certification center.
Both Google Maps and Naver Map suggest this as the most efficient route.
The total travel time is about 4 hours, and the combined KTX and bus fare is approximately $40 per person.

How to get to the starting point Damyang Dam from Seoul
Getting to Damyang Dam from Seoul is more complicated and time-consuming than reaching Yeongsan River Dam. There are no KTX trains available, and the journey involves multiple bus rides, with total travel time ranging from 6 to 9 hours depending on the public transportation options. Unless you have a direct ride, we do not recommend this option.
As an alternative, Koreaseoulbikerental can offer bike drop-offs and customized personal car transportation to either Damyang Dam or Yeongsan River Dam certification centers.
