Adjacent to Ohdaesan National Park, Sambong Natural Recreation Forest is located inside a dense forest with a harmony of such coniferous trees as Needle Fir, Khingan Fir, and Japanese Yew, and such broadleaved trees as Ribbed Birch and Schmidt Birch. Yeolmok, the Natural Monument No. 74 inhabits in the clear water of its deep valley.  In summer it is too cold to put feet in for more than 5 minutes. Sambong mineral spring in the middle of Sambong, known as a good remedy for stomach troubles, is attracting a number of people nationwide.
