연인산 도립공원 탐방로의 환경변화

As Mt. Yeonin mountain consists of biotite gneiss, its soil layer is well developed and its natural landscape is splendid in spite of its small scale. However, as a result of the increase in visitors after being appointed as a provincial park, the eco trails and surroundings were damaged to a great extent. According to the research result, the main cause is “rainwash” which occurs because trampling broadens the trail, soil creep, aquiclude are formed. To tackle the problem, it suggests some measures to put the limit on the number of visitors per day, to put the visitor-reservation system in practice as well as the plans to establish a bypass in the damaged section of the trail on a ridge, to install the trail deck on the slope of the summit. In order to effectively look after the trails in Mt. Yeonin Provincial Park, it is essential to crack down on the disordered act of some visitors and maintain the mileposts along with consideration of the suggested measures and plans.
