Naejangsan Maple Tree Tunnel, Tree tunnel at Naejangsan National Park, South Korea
The Naejangsan Maple Tree Tunnel forms a natural corridor of maple trees stretching through the national park with leaves changing to red during autumn.
This natural formation has been a central feature of Naejangsan National Park since its establishment in 1971, drawing visitors from across South Korea.
The 108 maple trees lining the path hold Buddhist significance, connecting to the spiritual traditions practiced at nearby Naejangsa Temple.
Visitors can reach the tree tunnel by taking a KTX train to Jeongeup Station, followed by a local bus service to the park entrance.
From late October through November, fallen maple leaves create a natural red carpet effect along the entire length of the tunnel path.

These botanical paths feature beech trees, cherry blossoms, bamboo, maple and oak trees. The branches form natural vaults over roads, paths and railway lines. Some were deliberately planted, others developed over decades. The tunnels provide shade in summer and change their appearance with the seasons.
