The mud here, taken from the tidal flats near Daecheon Beach, is rich in minerals that help improve skin health. The organisers invited people to the beach to feel the mud themselves, to slide in it, roll in it and enjoy it.  Over the years, the Boryeong Mud Festival became a summer highlight, not just for Koreans but for travellers across the world. It honours the healing qualities of the region\u2019s mud and celebrates the freedom that comes from letting go and just enjoying the moment.<\/p>\n<h2>How To Reach<\/h2>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/tripxl.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/How-To-Reach-24.jpg\" alt=\"Gyeongbu Expressway with several cars and buses on the lanes with headlights on\" width=\"850\" height=\"425\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-259849\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog-img-dev.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/How-To-Reach-24.jpg 850w, https:\/\/blog-img-dev.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/How-To-Reach-24-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog-img-dev.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/How-To-Reach-24-768x384.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog-img-dev.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/How-To-Reach-24-120x60.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/div>\n<p><a class=\"imagesource-link\" href=\"https:\/\/commons.wikimedia.org\/wiki\/File:Gyeongbu_Express_Way.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Photo: Trainholic \/ Wikimedia Commons<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>By Rail:<\/strong> From Yongsan Station in Seoul, take a KTX or Mugunghwa train to Daecheon Station. The ride takes between 2 to 2.5 hours. Once you arrive, it\u2019s a 15 to 20 minute taxi ride to Daecheon Beach. Local buses also run that way, though they may take longer.<\/p>\n<p><strong>By Road:<\/strong> Go to the Seoul Express Bus Terminal and take a bus to Boryeong Bus Terminal. The journey usually takes about 3 hours. From the terminal, taxis are easy to find, or you can catch a local bus to the beach. If you\u2019re driving, take either the Gyeongbu Expressway or Seohaean Expressway from Seoul. On a good day, it takes just under three hours. There\u2019s parking near the beach, but it fills fast, especially on weekends.<\/p>\n<h2>Timings And Venue Of The Festival<\/h2>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/tripxl.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Timings-And-Venue-Of-The-Festival.jpg\" alt=\"People covered in mud walking on the beach towards the water and others playing\" width=\"850\" height=\"425\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-259852\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog-img-dev.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Timings-And-Venue-Of-The-Festival.jpg 850w, https:\/\/blog-img-dev.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Timings-And-Venue-Of-The-Festival-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog-img-dev.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Timings-And-Venue-Of-The-Festival-768x384.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog-img-dev.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Timings-And-Venue-Of-The-Festival-120x60.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/div>\n<p><a class=\"imagesource-link\" href=\"https:\/\/commons.wikimedia.org\/wiki\/File:Korea-Boryeong_Mud_Festival-01.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Photo: Kai Hendry \/ Wikimedia Commons<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The 28th Boryeong Mud Festival will run from 25 July to 10 August 2025 at Daecheon Beach in Boryeong, South Korea.

Locals mix with international tourists, and it\u2019s common to see families with children sharing space with young travellers. Throughout the day, music keeps the mood high. In the evening, lights come up around the main stage, and the beach turns into an open-air concert. Some stay to dance near the speakers, while others relax at the back or sit along the edge of the sand. There are calm areas, places to rinse off, grab food, or just sit down for a while before heading back into the action.<\/p>\n<h2>Major Activities At The Boryeong Mud Festival<\/h2>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/tripxl.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Major-Activities-At-The-Boryeong-Mud-Festival.jpg\" alt=\"People covered in mud wrestling in the mud pit with one pushing down the other\" width=\"850\" height=\"425\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-259850\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog-img-dev.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Major-Activities-At-The-Boryeong-Mud-Festival.jpg 850w, https:\/\/blog-img-dev.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Major-Activities-At-The-Boryeong-Mud-Festival-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog-img-dev.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Major-Activities-At-The-Boryeong-Mud-Festival-768x384.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog-img-dev.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Major-Activities-At-The-Boryeong-Mud-Festival-120x60.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/div>\n<p><a class=\"imagesource-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.shutterstock.com\/image-photo\/korea-boryeong-mud-festival-july-27-1514784188\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Photo: SIRASONY \/ Shutterstock<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Here are the Boryeong Mud Festival activities which welcome visitors to join any activity that catches your eye:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Mud Wrestling:<\/strong> Two people enter a mud ring and try to push each other down.

Some people walk around with full-body art before rinsing it off.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Mud Pools:<\/strong> These are open pools filled with cool, soft mud. You can lie down, float, or just sit and talk with others.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Evening Concerts:<\/strong> As it gets dark, DJs and K-pop performers take over the main stage. People dance, jump, and cheer, still covered in mud.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Family Area:<\/strong> A quiet zone with shallow mud pools for children.

The most popular choice during the day is fresh seafood. Grilled clams, squid skewers, and steamed shellfish are available right along the beachfront. Most stalls serve straight from the grill, and everything is cooked fresh. Tteokbokki (spicy rice cakes), hotteok (stuffed pancakes), and twigim (deep-fried vegetables or squid) are easy to grab and eat on the go. Many visitors head to Korean BBQ spots after sunset. For those who prefer non-seafood options, there are noodle places and kimbap shops near the main road behind the beach. Vegetarian dishes are limited, but bibimbap (vegetable rice bowl) is easy to find.<\/p>\n<h2>What To Pack And Wear For The Mud Festival<\/h2>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/tripxl.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/What-To-Pack-And-Wear-For-The-Mud-Festival.jpg\" alt=\"People covered in mud and some clean walking barefoot, carrying their slippers and sandals\" width=\"850\" height=\"425\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-259855\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog-img-dev.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/What-To-Pack-And-Wear-For-The-Mud-Festival.jpg 850w, https:\/\/blog-img-dev.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/What-To-Pack-And-Wear-For-The-Mud-Festival-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog-img-dev.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/What-To-Pack-And-Wear-For-The-Mud-Festival-768x384.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog-img-dev.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/What-To-Pack-And-Wear-For-The-Mud-Festival-120x60.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/div>\n<p><a class=\"imagesource-link\" href=\"https:\/\/commons.wikimedia.org\/wiki\/File:Mud_Fest_._Revisited_(3002183917).jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Photo: Hypnotica Studios Infinite \/ Wikimedia Commons<\/a><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Wear old clothes that you won\u2019t mind getting ruined.

It\u2019s about stepping into something different and not holding back. You don\u2019t need a plan or a schedule, just show up, wear old clothes, and join in. The energy, the people, and the setting make it worth the trip. If you\u2019re thinking of going this year, book your stay early and check ticket options in advance.
