Built in 2009, this emblematic suspension bridge of Cheongyang stretches a total of 207 meters. Its most striking feature is a 16-meter-high main tower in the middle, ingeniously crafted to resemble Goji berries and red peppers, Cheongyang’s proud local produce. Below it is a narrow 1.5-meter-wide, 20-meter-long bridge, which starts to sway subtly both vertically and horizontally, offering a gentle thrill to whoever walks on it. This bridge is engineered to swing up to 30 to 40 centimeters, adding to the excitement of the crossing. Upon reaching the other side, visitors are greeted by an observatory and a trail leading up to Chilgapsan Mountain. For those who prefer a less strenuous journey, a leisurely stroll around Cheonjangho Lake towards Hwangnyongjeong Pavilion is a delightful alternative. The lake, overarched by the suspension bridge and nestled at the foot of Chilgapsan Mountain’s eastern reaches, presents a spectacular vista, rightfully counted among Cheongyang's most celebrated sights. The hiking trail ascends to the top of Chilgapsan Mountain, offering yet another perspective to appreciate the beauty of Cheonjangho Lake, the Cheonjangho Suspension Bridge, verdant forests, and charming valleys. An especially unique experience is visiting the Cheonjangho Suspension Bridge at night when it’s aglow, revealing a mesmerizing nocturnal allure.

Ongmasan Mountain is located in the southern part of Boryeong with its highest point reaching 601 meters above sea level.
