Gajo Hot Springs' water is so soft and smooth and it's cleaner than any other hot spring in Korea. The hot spring water, which can be pumped at a rate of 5,000 tons per day, contains sulfur which is highly effective in preventing aging and chronic diseases. Soaking in the soft, smooth hot spring water in Gajo for a prolonged period is said to help balance the body's acidity, improve skin health, alleviate joint pain, bruises and nerve pain.

There is also a free outdoor foot bath available for visitors where you can relax while enjoying the view of Odosan Mountain. For those who doesn't like public baths or for those who prefer a more private hot spring experience, like families, the accommodations nearby, such as motels, also offer access to the hot spring water. The area is also home to Gajo Special Meat Street and this is where you can enjoy fresh beef and pork at amazing prices. The Gajo Pig Marinated Bulgogi Festival is a popular local event and visitors can enjoy snacks at a noodle shop and purchase locally grown produce.
