Gyeonggi Province Opens Full Route of Gyeonggi Dulle-gil on November 15... Pre-Opening Events 'Bountiful'

[Suwon Ilbo=Park No-hun] Ahead of the full-route opening of 'Gyeonggi Dulle-gil,' a roughly 860-kilometer walking travel path connecting 15 cities and counties in the outer Gyeonggi Province on November 15, Gyeonggi Province will conduct various pre-promotional events starting October 21.

First, the province will hold a character naming contest for the Dulle-gil from October 21 to October 28.

The Dulle-gil character takes the form of the trail course connected by lines, and four characters were created to symbolize the four regions of the Dulle-gil.

Anyone can participate by leaving a comment on the contest post on the Dulle-gil Instagram account (@i_am_dule), submitting a representative name that captures the character and traits of the Dulle-gil character.

A 'Stamp Design Drawing' campaign, where participants color Dulle-gil stamps, will also run from October 22 to November 19.

Along the Dulle-gil, visitors can stamp stamps, either via mobile or offline, that represent 120 nearby tourist attractions so they can authenticate their visit after exploration.

Those wishing to participate in the campaign can select one design, color it in their own way, tag it with #GyeonggiDulleGil, and post it on their own Instagram account.

From October 29 to November 12, participants can also join a 'Quiz Event.'

Simply leave the answer to Dulle-gil related quizzes posted on the Dulle-gil Instagram as a comment.

For each event, prizes such as hotel accommodations, Gyeonggi Province specialties, and smartwatches will be provided through judging or drawing.

Details can be found on the Gyeonggi Tourism Portal (ggtour.or.kr) Gyeonggi Dulle-gil page or the Gyeonggi Dulle-gil Instagram.

Additionally, videos capturing the beautiful scenery from various points along the Gyeonggi Dulle-gil will be released through TV programs and popular YouTuber channels to coincide with the full-route opening date (November 15).

Choi Yong-hun, director of the Tourism Division of Gyeonggi Province, said, "We have prepared many fun and interesting events to promote the Gyeonggi Dulle-gil," and added, "We plan to complete the development of a dedicated homepage by October 31 to comprehensively provide information on the entire route and detailed information by course, as well as information on nearby tourism resources."
