Muan County is organizing a health event for residents of Namak New Town, allowing them to walk together and check their health status.

The Muan County Health Center announced that the '2026 Urban Escape Health Walk' will take place on the 17th at 10 AM at the Namak New Town Bicycle Park.

This event aims to encourage residents to incorporate walking into their daily lives while providing opportunities to assess their health through walking and health experience programs.

On the day of the event, the health experience center and promotional booth will open at 9 AM, followed by an opening ceremony and a pre-performance before the 3.3 km health walk around the waterfront park begins at 10 AM.

The health experience center will offer various programs, including AI-based fitness and body composition assessments, personalized exercise prescriptions, stress measurements, and lung capacity tests.

Health information on preventing cardiovascular diseases and dementia will also be provided to help residents monitor their health and evaluate their daily habits.

Notably, there will be interactive programs where residents can engage with digital devices to access health information through AI kiosks and hands-on activities.

Participants who complete the walking course will receive a commemorative gift. The event is designed not just as a simple walk but as a comprehensive health initiative that provides health assessments, disease prevention information, and experiential programs to enhance residents' interest in healthy living.

Seo Anna, head of the Health Promotion and Urban Health Team at the Muan County Health Center, stated, “We hope this event will remind residents of the importance of health while walking together and encourage them to practice walking in their daily lives. We will do our best to ensure that all participants can safely enjoy the event.”

Meanwhile, the '2026 Urban Escape Health Walk' will take place over a 3.3 km route centered around the Namak New Town Bicycle Park, with the health experience center and promotional booth operating from 9 AM, one hour before the walking event.
