ABSTRACT
To identify erosion properties of trail with the different trail use, a comparative study was conducted in Mt. Mudeung National Park (Gwangju, Korea) in Jeungsimsa~Jungmeorijae area of high traffic (Ta) and Second catchment area~Jungmeorijae of low traffic (Tb). The two hiking trails were located on sidehill of valleys, and the gradient difference was not large. However, Ta has more points of gully shape more than Tb in trail structure. The bottom of the trail was composed of bedrock (Ta) and gravel (Tb) at most points. Root exposure problems were commonly found in two trails, but multiple trails were found only in the upper part of Ta. Soil erosion rate estimated by the measurement of cross-section area of the trail was significantly bigger on the Ta than Tb. However, the significant difference between Ta and Tb was occurring from trail-width not trail-depth. The difference of trail erosion characteristics according to the intensity of use is led by the expansion of the trail. Therefore, this study suggests that the attention and countermeasure about trail widening will be needed with increasing hiking trail use.
