The city has a well-paved bike road along the Namhangang Riverbank connecting Paldang to Yangpyeong through Daeseong-ri. The city also has the Slow City Trail, starting from Ungilsan Station and passing through Majinsanseong Fortress and Sujongsa Temple before arriving at Songchon Independence Park.
