Where to Find Fall Flowers around Pyeongtaek
When the air is getting colder, that doesn’t signal the end of colorful blooms. Thankfully, Korea is home to several native flowers that are hardy enough to bring some color into these increasingly cloudy days. Most of these fall varietals bloom from September to November.
From jewel tones to soft pastels, here are some places in and around Pyeongtaek to enjoy fall flowers.
Anseong River Trail, Pyeongtaek
Here you will find a paved jogging and cycling trail lined with tall autumn grasses and cosmos. Parking can be challenging. You will see several cars parked at various spots where roads meet the trail. If precarious parking isn’t for you, there is also a large gravel parking lot about a kilometer from Pyeongtaek Station/AK Plaza with free parking. You can also catch the trail from Paengseong Bridge near the Camp Humphreys Dongchan-ri gate. There is also a delightful cafe, Bom Cafe, along the trail. Also, the trail is dog friendly.

Baram Saemaeul, Pyeongtaek Writer’s Top Pick!
The wispy pink muhly fields look almost like a sea with pink waves when the wind blows. The fields are small but magical and dreamy. There is also a little cafe here with indoor and outdoor seating options. In the spring these same fields are full of bright yellow rapeseed blossoms. Sopung Park is just a few hundred meters down the road where you can enjoy multiple playgrounds, walking trails, and art installations.

Jinwicheon Amusement Park , Pyeongtaek
Enjoy cosmos, mums, and other fall flowers while riding a rail bike! In addition to the rail bike, Jinwicheon Amusement Park also offers campgrounds and walking trails. Since it is so close to Osan Air Base, come back in the spring when the bright yellow rapeseed flowers are in bloom. Rail bike appears to only be operational on the weekend and there are dedicated parking and rail bike fees.
