Kumho Resort will host the 5th Seorak Park Golf Challenge on October 24 at the Kumho Seorak Resort in Sokcho, Gangwon Province, welcoming autumn travelers with new seasonal menu items featuring local ingredients.
This year marks the fifth edition of the Seorak Park Golf Challenge, a recreational event that invites both guests and local clubs to participate. The tournament will take place at the Kumho Seorak Resort's park golf course, which spans approximately 1,300 pyeong and includes nine holes (seven par-3 holes and two par-4 holes).
Anyone aged 20 and over can participate in the competition. The event will begin at 3 p.m. on the 24th with safety training, a practice round, the main tournament, and the announcement of results and awards.
Eight teams of four (a total of 32 participants) will compete in a nine-hole stroke play format. The resort will provide golf clubs and balls, allowing beginners to join without needing their own equipment.
All participants will receive a sauna pass for the Kumho Seorak Resort and a souvenir from the Gangwon Tourism Foundation. The winning team will be awarded a one-night stay voucher for any Kumho Resort location, while the runner-up team will receive a one-night stay voucher for the Kumho Seorak Resort. Additional prizes include breakfast buffet vouchers and local specialty exchange vouchers.
Following the tournament, a one-hour 'Autumn Night Busking' event will take place at the Garden Grill starting at 6:30 p.m. Guests and barbecue customers can enjoy the performance for free. Additionally, two unlimited draft beer packages will be available for early purchasers, who will also receive souvenirs.
Furthermore, since last month, Kumho Resort has introduced new autumn menu items at breakfast buffets across its four locations in Seorak, Jeju, Tongyeong, and Hwasun.
Notably, the Kumho Seorak Resort features over 60 breakfast menu items made with local seasonal ingredients, including chili crab prepared with autumn blue crabs and a hearty soup made with dried pollack from Yongdae-ri, Inje, Gangwon Province. A bibimbap station featuring six types of seasonal mountain vegetables from Gangwon Province is also available, along with a special lunch set of mountain vegetable bibimbap.
A Kumho Resort representative stated, "From park golf against the backdrop of the autumn foliage of Seoraksan and Ulsanbawi to barbecues and busking performances, we have prepared a variety of experiences for our guests to fully enjoy the charm of autumn at Kumho Seorak Resort. We will continue to offer diverse recreational, culinary, and cultural content that reflects the seasons and local characteristics."
