Seongjubong Natural Recreation Forest is located at the foot of Seongjubong (606m) in Namgok-ri, Euncheok-myeon, Sangju-si, harmonizing dense forests, fresh air, clean water, and beautiful scenery. It features eight forest houses and eleven forest recreation rooms nestled in deep valleys for enjoying nature and relaxation. There are also eight training rooms and an auditorium for group events, 55 camping decks, and a water playground. The site offers a natural 150m rock climbing course, well-maintained walking trails, and five unique hiking courses for visitors' comfort. The forest also boasts a medicinal herb garden and trail where about 18,000 wildflowers of 16 species including Geumbulcho, and over 100 medicinal herbs such as licorice, can be observed, making it a distinguished characteristic of Seongjubong Natural Recreation Forest.

This site features a spectacular view made up of steep cliffs and old pine trees, known as Jacheondae because it was said the sky itself descended here. However, after Mr. Chae Deuk-gi inscribed the words ‘Daemyeong Cheonji (Great Bright Heaven and Earth) Sungjeong Ilwol (Revered Sun and Moon)’ it was renamed Gyeongcheondae. Muujeong, a pavilion built by the Joseon-era scholar Chae Deuk-gi from this region, is located on the cliff. Gyeongcheondae was also used for rain rituals and is associated with a legend where General Jeong Gi-ryong obtained a legendary dragon horse from the sky. Artifacts remain where Jeong carved the rock to use as a horse feeding trough. Known as a gathering place for scholars in Sangju, it was frequented by notable literati such as Kim Sang-heon, Lee Sik, and Lee Man-ryeo. From the observatory on Okjubong, visitors can view distant Juhulsan (1,106m), Hakgasan, the Nakdong River, and Baekhwasan all at once. Within Gyeongcheondae are an observatory, artificial waterfall, Gyeongcheondae Children's Land, and a camping site. Walking through the pine forest to the observatory offers a refreshing view of the Nakdong River’s waterway and surrounding scenery. The lush pine forest trail to the observatory is ideal for forest bathing. The cliff-top view overlooking the river is breathtaking, with winding Nakdong River and riverbank rock formations visible through twisted pine trees. The trail up to the observatory is shaded with pine forests, making it suitable as a forest bath site. Nearby are many cultural assets, including Jeonsabeol Royal Tomb, Jeongoryeong Gaya Royal Tomb, and Chung-uisa, designated as Gyeongsangbuk-do monuments. In autumn 2001, an outdoor marketplace set from the MBC drama was built on the southern riverbank near Gyeongcheondae, adding another attraction.
