Korea National Center for Forest Therapy

National Center for Forest Therapy (Sooperang) in Yeongju–Yecheon is Korea’s largest forest therapy complex, set at the foot of Sobaeksan Mountain. It offers evidence-based healing programs and gentle forest experiences that help visitors reduce stress, improve their health, and restore emotional balance.

Managed by the Korea Forest Welfare Institute, the center combines modern wellness facilities with immersive forest trails, creating a calm environment for science-backed nature therapy and relaxation. Guests can join guided activities such as breathing exercises, mindful walking, stretching, and relaxation sessions designed for different ages and health conditions.

Comfortable on-site accommodation lets visitors stay inside the forest, follow multi-day programs, and enjoy a slower daily rhythm of rest, movement, and reflection. The center is ideal for individuals, families, and groups seeking a structured yet soothing forest therapy retreat in Korea, away from city noise and everyday pressure.
