The Grand Korea Leisure (GKL) organization is backing a unique cycling festival in Busan, South Korea, that will connect the city's major maritime bridges and tunnels. The 2026 Seven Bridge Tour, set to take place on Sunday, is expected to draw around 4,000 cyclists from across Korea and abroad. This will be the only event of its kind in the country, combining a competitive cycling race with noncompetitive activities.
The tour will traverse some of Busan's most prominent transportation landmarks, showcasing the city's tourism resources. In addition to the bike race, the festival will feature a "Seven Bridge Good Morning Bridge Walking" event, inviting locals to walk across the iconic Gwangan Bridge. Another program, "Seven Bridge Festival," will offer wellness activities at Yeongho Starlight Park, further cementing the event as a comprehensive tourism experience.
GKL's involvement in the festival is aimed at promoting Busan's cycling infrastructure and overall tourism offerings.
