This study was aimed at examining the recent and the future changes of tourism climatic conditions for Chiaksan national park using TCI(Tourism Climate Index). The distribution type of daily mean of TCI showed the bimodal-shoulder peaks for all periods of the past and the future. Therefore, Chiaksan national park showed affordable climate of touring in spring and autumn due to temperature and relative humidity constituting Cid and Cia. Summer tourism climatic conditions of Chiaksan national park has become worse recently. In the future, these trends are projected more stronger. Also, the lowest TCI in the year is projected to shift from winter to summer due to a decrease of Cid.
