   Daegwallyeong Sheep Ranch

   대관령 양떼목장

   Daegwallyeong Sheep Ranch is an eco-friendly mountainous livestock farm designated by the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs for its focus on animal welfare and forest conservation. It boasts top-tier domestic processes and systems for grazing and raising sheep. Through hands-on sheep feeding experiences, visitors can connect emotionally with the animals in ways rarely felt in daily life, providing children with educational and emotional enrichment. The sight of flocks of sheep grazing leisurely on the vast grassland creates an exotic landscape. The circular 1.2 km walking trail takes about 40 minutes to complete. The rustic wooden cabin standing in the middle of the field served as a filming set for the movie 'A Letter from Mars' and is a popular photo spot. A charming piano placed on the meadow adds a unique touch of whimsy. Flanked by the Baekdudaegan Mountain Range, this plateau fills visitors with clean, unpolluted mountain air, making you feel at one with nature.MoreLess
