Adds a reported 6.11 km connector into the Gwangju-Naju-Hwasun and Yeongsan River cycling network, but field rideability still needs checking.
Naju opened a 6.11 km Jiseokcheon bike path segment between Sanpo and Nampyeong, connecting into the wider Gwangju-Naju-Hwasun and Yeongsan River riding network.
Probably yes.
The city held an opening event on April 2, 2026, and reports published on April 3 say the section is open. Surface, crossing friction, signage, and weekend crowding still need a field check before calling it a good ride.
Maybe, if you are already riding the Yeongsan River area.
Do not plan a whole trip around the press-release version yet. Ride it as a connector first, then decide if it earns a proper route page.
Reported segment: Sanpo to Nampyeong, 6.11 km. Map needs: route geometry and a GPX download before this becomes map-enabled content.
