The Gochang Dolmen Site is a World Heritage site where hundreds of dolmens are scattered across open fields. Their sizes and forms vary, so it is interesting to compare them as you walk.
If you start with the museum next door for background, the fields look different when you head outside. The trail is flat, so it is manageable even with children.

Useful tips • Seeing the museum first makes the field area much easier to understand. • The trail is flat, so walking with children is not much of a burden. • There is little shade in the fields, so in summer it is best to bring a hat and water.
