Forest recreation is done outdoor, so weather has impact on forest recreation. Impact of temperature on forest recreation has been studied. However, impact of precipitation on forest recreation has not been studied yet. This article paid attention to rainfall and rainy day among the variables explaining the visitor number of national park. We analyzed whether rainfall and rainy day have impact on visitor number. As the result of analysis, rainy day had impact on the visitor number of national park in Korea, and the degree of the impact was inelastic. However, rainfall could not explain the visitor number of national park. It is needed to monitor the impact of precipitation on forest recreation demand.
