Hoengseonghosugil Trail is divided into themes, Course 1 Hoengseong Dam Road (Hoengseongdae-Daegwandae-ri 3 km, about 1 hour), Course 2 Neungseon-gil (Daegwandae-ri-Hoengseong Hot Spring 4 km, about 2 hours), Course 3 Healing Road (Hoengseong Hot Spring-Hwajeon-ri 1.5 km, about 1 hour), Course 4 Contemplative Path (Hwajeon-ri - Manghyangui Hill 7 km, about 2 hours 30 minutes), Course 5 Family Road (Manghyang's Garden 9 km, about 3 hours) and Course 6, Hoesanggil (Manghyang's Garden - Hoengseong Dam, 7 km, about 2 hours and 30 minutes). Among them, the 5-section Family Road (9 km) is a great course to enjoy Hoengseong Lake up close fully and is the only course that returns to the starting point.
