From Sai-gil to Seoripul Park: The Complete Half-Day Route

A three-to-four-hour route from an alley grown in the gaps between apartment blocks to a park network built atop a reservoir, tracing another face of Gangnam.

The core route

1. Bangbae-dong's Sai-gil — Walk the café street that grew in the gaps between apartment complexes.

2. Seorae Village — Confirm the French community left behind by KTX technical cooperation.

3. Montmartre Park — Take in the background of its creation through Cacharel's corporate giving.

4. Nue Bridge — Cross the connecting section to Seori-gol Park.

5. Seoripul Bridge and Seoripul Park — Complete the artificial park network built atop the reservoir.

6. A viewpoint in Seoripul Park — Finish while recalling the origin of the name Seori-gol.

Backup routes for different situations

If it's raining heavily

Extend your time at cafés along Bangbae-dong's Sai-gil
→ Keep your walk through Montmartre Park and Seoripul Park's outdoor sections brief, with an umbrella
→ Adjust your remaining time at indoor bakeries and cafés in Seorae Village

If weekend crowds are heavy

Move quickly through the congested Sai-gil section, and put your walk through the relatively quiet Seoripul Park earlier in your route.

If walking is difficult, or accessibility is a concern

Limit your visit to Bangbae-dong's Sai-gil and Seorae Village, and save the bridge-crossing park network for a future visit.
