Participants set out Saturday for the global charity event Oxfam Trailwalker, organized by the international relief and development organization Oxfam Korea in partnership with Inje County, Gangwon Province.

Oxfam Trailwalker is a challenge-based fundraising event where teams of four must complete a designated distance within 38 hours. This year, a total of 210 teams are taking part in the event's signature 100-kilometer course, as well as the 50-kilometer and 25-kilometer courses.

Participants began the challenge at 6 a.m. on Saturday, departing from the Jindong branch of Girin Elementary School in Inje. The route takes them through some of Inje’s most scenic walking paths and key landmarks, including Gombaeryeong and Hangyeryeong.
