The Pyeongchang Model Forest (37° 48" N, 128° 52" E) was established in the Jungwangsan of Pyeongchang-gun, Gangwon-do, and belongs to the temperate north forest region. Because it is adjacent to the forest genetic resource protection area, the risks of damage and public access to this forest are considered relatively low.
