Located in Osan-ri, Gosan Recreational Forest is a popular family destination throughout all four seasons. Full of thick groves of larch trees, Korean white pines, rigida pines, and plenty of broad-leaved trees, the forest and its streams offer a cool and refreshing retreat. In spring, the forest is beautiful with wildflowers, azaleas and wild cherry blossom trees. In summer, families flock to the streams shaded by the thick forest canopy. As summer turns into fall, the whole area transforms into a rainbow of bright yellow, red, and orange. With the coming of winter, the snow covers the trees and blankets the ground, turning the forest in a winter dreamland.

Gosan Miso Market encompasses both the Gosan Market (five-day market), which was established in 1964, and the Gosan Miso Market (daily market), which opened in 2013. It houses shops selling Korean beef, Gosan local foods, agricultural products, and dairy products. One of the highlights is the Korean-style meat restaurant located on the second floor, where customers can purchase Korean beef on the first floor and have it grilled right away. The five-day market operates on days containing the numbers 4 and 9.
