Abstract
This study was conducted to provide information which will be useful for managing the forest trails effectively. To investigate users' attitudes toward the forest trail construction and use, a questionnaire survey was employed in the Jirisan Dulegil. As the results, most of the respondents perceived that the Jirisan Dulegil have positive impact economically and socio-culturally on community growth. Contrastively, a negative perception existed in the environmental aspect. The users' satisfaction level regarding the Jirisan Dulegil appear to be positive. Users' satisfaction level regarding use services provided in community boundary was evaluated relatively lower. In this point of view, trail use service system provided in the community should be reconsidered for effective forest trail management.
