Gangneung station is a railway station on the Yeongdong Line in Gyo-dong, Gangneung, Gangwon, South Korea. All Seatrains and Mugungwha trains stopped at this station until September 14, 2014 when it was closed because of the construction of the Gyeonggang Line (Wonju-Gangneung Line). Because of this, all Mugungwha trains had terminated at Jeongdongjin station.

The Gyeonggang line and Gangneung station opened at December 22, 2017. The KTX-Sancheon train started stopping here. However, the Mugunghwa-ho trains terminated at Jeongdongjin station before July 18, 2018. This is because there were many KTX-Sancheon because of the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang County.
