Before you realize, green leaves turn yellow and red, and fall has reached its peak. And, once the leaves in the colors of autumn begin to fall one by one, the fleeting season will come to an abrupt end. Every moment is too precious to be sitting at home and merely looking out the window. So how about going on a light walking trip? You don’t have to travel far; anywhere that has a cool river breeze and the rich vibe of the autumn season is a wonderful place to walk. Now, let’s go to the riverside trails of Busan, a great city for walks.
Oncheoncheon Trail
Just as Seoul has Cheonggyecheon, Busan has Oncheoncheon. Originating in Geumjeong-gu and flowing through Dongnae-gu and Yeonje-gu, Oncheoncheon Stream has a trail along its water route and is one of the most beloved stream trails of Busan locals. Do not let its location in the city center conjure up thoughts of mediocrity. As you walk along the stream, it is not uncommon to see wild animals that are rarely found in cities, such as otters, gray herons and egrets. Also, the elegant street of cafes under the Oncheoncheon trees provides cool relaxation in summer and a warm cup of coffee in winter.
But this is not the only reason that Oncheoncheon is so loved by many. The true beauty of the stream lies in its changing scenery in all four seasons. The unknown wildflowers along Oncheoncheon and the old cherry trees standing on top of a hill change to new clothes every season. Upon arrival of the season in which the colorful maple leaves fall by the cold wind, the color of autumn permeates through the stream like a painting. In a season that feels more beautiful because of its short presence, let’s walk through the painting-like scenery.
Suyeonggang Riverside Trail
In the midst of high-rise buildings that seemingly touch the sky, there is a place where you can feel the cool river breeze that will clear up your mind and heart. This place is the Suyeonggang Riverside Trail. A part of the Busan Galmaetgil Trail 8-2 that goes from Dongcheongyo Bridge to Jwasuyeonggyo Bridge and Millakgyo Bridge, the Suyeonggang Riverside Trail is level and gentle so it is perfect for a light stroll. The clear sky, cool breeze and trail enriched by autumn present you with a momentary rest within the busy city center.
If you like to enjoy some speed rather than a slow walk, grab your bike and ride along the Suyeonggang Riverside Trail. The Suyeonggang riverside, which flows peacefully along its curves, offers not only clean water and cool air but also a well-built bike path. Autumn, a season with cool wind, is the best season to ride a bike! Let’s fully enjoy the season as we cut through the cool autumn breeze.
Nakdonggang Riverside Trail
The Nakdonggang estuary finally meets with the sea after a long journey and, as you stand next to the gently flowing river, you feel refreshed by the cool breeze blowing from across the river. The Nakdonggang Riverside Trail can be accessed simply by coming over a river bank from downtown Busan, which is why it is full of people who come out for a walk or a picnic under the cool fall wind. It is also a great place to “gaze at the water and space out” under the cool shade of a tree while listening to the sound from the river.
The reed fields suddenly produce a golden wave because of wind that came from an invisible source. The fall scenery of Nakdonggang riverside sways the heart of those who see it. Around this time every year, the reeds fluttering by the river breeze form a golden spectacle, grabbing the attention of many people. If you haven’t gotten a chance to enjoy the season because of your busy schedule, how about visiting the Nakdonggang Riverside Trail and capturing the final moments of autumn this year?
