Activities & Day Trips
As Mustangs, we work hard but play even harder, and there are always exciting things to see and experience beyond the Main Gate and the SED. Osan Information, Tickets, and Travel (ITT) lets you discover South Korea’s culture, history, and endless modern entertainment with tickets to local attractions and organized tours. Discounted or hard-to-find tickets are often available to local theme parks like Everland and LotteWorld, museums, and cultural events.
ITT can also help you plan a hassle-free adventure to places like Gyeongbokgung Palace, the Seoul Lantern Festival, and even the Jeonju Hanok Village. If natural beauty is more your style, there are countless scenic spots such as Garden of the Morning Calm, Seoraksan National Park, or Jeju Island, and seasonal trips that include cherry blossom tours, breathtaking autumn foliage trips, heart-pounding luge adventures down a mountainside, and of course winter ski resort excursions.
But where to start? The possibilities are endless. Maybe you’ve heard about the night-life scene in the Soseobol neighborhood and are wondering where it is. Maybe you and your buddies are craving a tabletop grill at an all-you-can-eat restaurant. There are countless museums (usually free or very inexpensive), ATV adventures, water parks, and so much more. Did you work a late shift and need somewhere to eat (24-hr restaurants are everywhere!) but aren’t sure where to look? You’re in luck! To find all of this and so much more, volunteers here at Osan maintain an Osan Community Directory. It has extensive Naver lists of countless interests, restaurants, and activities (indoor and outdoor), and everything from kitchen supply stores to animal cafes to skate parks. You’ll be able to quickly find stores, services, and activities (indoor and outdoor), as well as “eat and play” spots for kids, and so much more. It’s also conveniently organized into areas of Pyeongtaek and Korea so you can get your bearings.
To gear up for these adventures, be sure to check out Osan Outdoor Recreation, where you can rent a wide range of outdoor equipment perfect for camping, hiking, skiing, fishing, and even small engine tools for yard maintenance.
