To the south, it shares borders with Gusan-dong and Daejo-dong, and to the west lies Changneung-dong in Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-do.

The name "Galhyeon" originates from the Chinese character "葛峴", which translates to "Kudzu Pass" or "Galgogae" in Korean. This name was given to the area due to the plentiful presence of arrowroot roots. The Dongguk Yeoji Bigo, a historical record, also refers to this region as "Galgogae".
