[Autumn in Incheon] Duri Ecological Park

 Autumn is the best season to go for a walk in Korea. In this post, we will introduce Duri Ecological Park, a park where you can enjoy Autumn walk with your family or lover in Incheon.

To get to Duri Ecological Park, you can take Airport Railroad, and get off at AREX Gyeyang Station. Then, walk about 10 mins towards Gyeyang bridge and Gyulhyeon bridge.

When you enter the park, you will first come to the Plaza of Water Flowers. There is a big signboard and a pavilion here, so it is not difficult to find.

If you come to Duri Ecological Park in Autumn, you can see maple trees that have turned into yellow/red color. And as you walk along the path filled with green trees, it will make you feel good.

After walking along the path full of reeds at the Water Flowers Plaza, you will arrive at the willow trees wetland. This course is good for a light walk that will take about 5 mins.

You can surely enjoy Autumn feel at this park when you see the reeds and silver grass at so many areas.

Duri Ecological Park has a wide silver grass field. You can say that this is one of parks in Incheon that brings out the best Autumn atmosphere.

After passing the wetland, you will arrive at Shadow Garden. You can take a rest for a while under the Gyulhyeon bridge. The wind and shades make you feel cool, so if you come to this park in Summer, this will be a good place for you to rest. There is a bridge in front of you. Just cross over and continue on the walking course in Duri Ecological Park.

If you turn right from the Shadow Garden, you will see the silver grass field. This path that leads to the sky garden is the most beautiful place to see and feel Autumn in Duri Ecological Park. Make sure you stop by here and feel the cool and refreshing Autumn breeze.

This place is the marsh plants garden. You will be able to see wildflowers and reeds and both sides of the walking path.

It is better to see the wild flowers grown in nature than the artificial garden, as it offers a more magnificent view. It is also good to take pictures in front of the reeds!

Let's enjoy the Autumn scenery at Duri Ecological Park!

Since Duri Ecological Park is located near the Incheon International Airport, you can even watch the airplane flying across the blue sky. It creates another interesting view.

Keep walking along the trail at the wild flower garden, and you will reach Haneul madang (Sky Garden).

The refreshing scenery of Haneul madang and Ara Waterway caught our attention. The trees along the Ara Waterway are showing the colorful Autumn leaves, creating a beautiful Autumn scenery.

You can see a variety of plants, small birds and insects in Duri Ecological Park, so it is also suitable to bring children here. Sometimes, you can also see people riding horses at this park.

Duri Ecological Park is connected to the Auto Camping Site. However, due to COVID-19, the Auto Camping Site is temporarily closed.

It will take about an hour to complete one complete round in Duri Ecological Park. It is recommended to walk along the Ara Waterway as you can enjoy the yellow gingko trees path as well.
