Programme
Alpensia Resort, Pyeongchang County, Gangwon Province, Korea(Main venue for the 2018 Olympic Winter Games)
October 12 to 16, 2015 (5 Days)
VenueGangwon Province, Republic of Korea
The Gangwon Province is at the center of Baekdu-daegan, a major range of mountains
forming the backbone of the Korean Peninsula. The eastern region runs along the coast
and the northern region lies face-to-face with the Demilitarized Zone. Its western area
is easily vulnerable to wildland fire due to the warm and dry weather and strong Foehn
winds in spring. As a local autonomous entity which deals with a large number of fires
every year, Gangwon Province is selected as the co-host of the 6th IWFC.
VenueAlpensia Resort in Pyeongchang County
Located about 2.5 hours from Seoul by bus, Pyeongchang County is
in the central region of south Gangwon Province. Of its total land,
approximately 65% lies on highlands 700 meters above sea level,
which is said to be the ideal altitude for the biorhythm of humans,
animals, and plants. Pyeongchang offers unspoiled natural beauty
year round, making it a much beloved spot among nature lovers.
Among the major resorts in Pyeongchang is the Alpensia Resort
Complex, which will serve as the main venue for the 2018 Olympic
Winter Games. The resort is a mega multi-tourist complex with ski
slopes, a golf course, a water park, convention halls, hotels,
condominiums, accommodation with various price classes.
