Hagi Forest Campground in Yuseong-gu, opened in 2021, a one-night urban stay prepared with 14 sites

In March 2021, a 14-site campground created on 16,000 square meters of state-owned land in Hagidong

Hagisu Camping Ground is an urban-style campground opened in March 2021, promoted by Daejeon Metropolitan City Yuseong-gu as a pledge project of the 7th local administration. The site is about 16,000 square meters of state-owned land in Hagidong, and the auto-camping area was developed into a total of 14 sites. Of these, one site is designated for socially vulnerable visitors.

Located in Hagidong, about 9 km from Daejeon City Hall, it is clearly intended for one-night stays in the urban living zone rather than for remote camping deep in the mountains. Yuseong-gu has operated Hagisu Camping Ground and Seongbuk-dong Forest Campground as urban-style campgrounds, and the official reservation method for Hagisu is online real-time booking.

Start by calculating 8 crushed-stone sites and 6 deck sites, with 3 m between sites

The 14 sites are divided into 8 crushed-stone sites and 6 deck sites. According to Korea Tourism Organization's Go Camping information, the spacing between sites is 3 m, and tourism information introduces each site as 8 m wide by 10 m long. Because the tent floor material and installation method differ, it is safer to choose between crushed-stone and deck sites at the reservation stage.

Each site allows the use of an individual fire pit, and 14 fire extinguishers are registered as safety equipment. Yuseong-gu also states that electrical outlets are provided at the sites, but it is advisable to confirm the capacity of the electrical devices you plan to use and whether an extension cord is needed with the management office before departure. Rental availability for camping equipment is marked as 'inquiry to the campground' on Go Camping.

• Number of sites: 14
• Ground type: 8 crushed-stone sites, 6 deck sites
• Site spacing: 3 m
• Listed site size: 8 m x 10 m
• Fire pit: individual use allowed

Yuseong-gu also provides a notice stating 20,000 won on off-season weekdays, 25,000 won on off-season weekends, and 25,000 won on weekdays and weekends during peak season, so the actual payment amount should be confirmed on the reservation screen and with the management office.

Barbecue area from 11:00 to 21:00, plus playground and ecological pond, shared facilities usable during a one-night stay

At Hagisu Camping Ground, the management office, toilets, shower rooms, drinking water stations, waste-sorting area, children's playground, ecological pond, pergola, and outdoor stage are listed as auxiliary facilities. The children's playground features a rope bridge, combined play structure, and tube swing, and a walking trail is also registered as a nearby facility available for use.

The barbecue area is described as offering free use of electric grills, with operating hours from 11:00 to 21:00. Yuseong-gu notes that the waste-sorting area includes a collection box for used charcoal. However, the operation of shared facilities and the availability of electric grills may vary depending on the season or events, so it is necessary to reconfirm on the day of booking.

Use bus routes 116, 117, 121, or A5 from Songnim Village Complex 5 and 6 stop, 157 m away

By public transportation, the Songnim Village Complex 5 and 6 stop is Informationed as approximately 157 m from the campground. Bus routes 116, 117, 121, and A5 stop there. The Songnim Village Complex 5 stop is about 302 m away and can be served by bus 116. Given the nature of one-night camping with a lot of luggage, bus travelers are realistically better off minimizing equipment or considering a taxi as well.

The road-name address is 290 Hagiro 143beon-gil, Yuseong-gu, Daejeon Metropolitan City (Hagidong), and the lot number address is 259 Hagidong. Parking is available and is guided as free. Official tourism data registers the location coordinates as 36.3932459012 north latitude and 127.3323243589 east longitude, so when searching in navigation, you can use 'Hagisu Family Camping Ground' or the road-name address together.

• Nearest stop: Songnim Village Complex 5 and 6, about 157 m
• Buses: 116, 117, 121, A5
• Parking: available, free
• Address: 290 Hagiro 143beon-gil, Yuseong-gu, Daejeon Metropolitan City

In 2026, pet policy information is inconsistent; a phone call before bringing a pet is essential

The pet policy information does not match across public sources. Korea Tourism Organization's Go Camping lists it as 'pets not allowed,' while a tourism-data-based introduction states that pets are allowed on the condition that they wear a leash, bring waste bags, and that large dogs wear a muzzle. Since these key rules conflict, if you are going with a dog, you must confirm in advance at 070-7727-5500.

A visit review published in July 2026 mentioned the campground's small scale, urban accessibility, playground, and facility management as strengths. On the other hand, it also pointed out that caravans and trailers are not allowed and that there is not enough room to turn large vehicles easily. Therefore, it is better suited to a small-scale one-night stay with a single passenger car than to long-term stays with large equipment spread out.

• Official camping information pet status: not allowed
• Tourism data introduction pet status: allowed with conditions
• Caravans and trailers: not allowed to enter
• Wheelchair, stroller, and foreign-language guidance: separate official confirmation required
