Imagine raising awareness about ecology, the environment, and family through games and activities. The Siheung Gaetgol Festival is an excellent example of this concept. “Gaetgol” refers to the water channels flowing through tidal flats during low tide, home to various halophytes, wetland creatures, and over 60 species of birds, making it an ecological treasure trove. The festival features a wide range of exciting programs. The activities include the “Eco-orienteering Mission Game,” where participants wear “Family Run” T-shirts and explore the festival grounds, a salt playground on the salt pans, Gaetgol Metaverse Family Run, Gaetgol Test, and Family Speed Quiz. Families completing the missions receive a completion medal from the festival. 

◎ Tip
Don‘t miss the Acoustic Festival, Jazz Concert, and Gaetgol Moonlight Night Tour set against the backdrop of the salt playground at the old salt field and Gaetgol. As an eco-friendly festival, it promotes a car-free environment. Bring your tumblers and reusable containers to participate with a sense of pride.
