High-touch PR launched the three-day trekking in 2018 at a remote valley/stream in Buyeong-dong in Gangwondo, which takes a typical mountainous shapes and hues of the Korean peninsula.
Participants include trail runners and trekkers both local and foreign alike. They enjoy touch walk/run time in a crystal-clear water of the Odaecheon Stream whose upper parts are the home of salmons.
It begins with a 3km asphalt run, followed by 9km fire road run and 6km upstream walk/run. Participants are required to wear wet suit or tights and bring a plastic bag to keep mobile devices away from the water. Drinking water and finger foods as well as a pocket safety kit are provided for enjoyable walk/run.
The summer event is popular as a plogging among eco-friendly hikers and runners. Participants pick garbage during their walk and run, contributing themselves to the clean nature.
