2025 Pyeongchang-gun Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in August)

If you're visiting South Korea and feel like you've had enough of Seoul, Busan, Jeju, or Incheon, there are plenty of other cities and provinces to explore. Gangwon-do, located in the northern region, offers numerous attractions and is a great destination to visit year-round. ❄️🐑 Daegwallyeong Sheep Farm Daegwallyeong is a popular tourist spot among Koreans, second only to skiing during the winter season. This mountainous area features hiking trails, restaurants, souvenir shops, and a sheep farm. 💕 Recommendations: Winter: Witness the stunning snow-covered mountains. Temperatures can drop as low as -25°C. Summer: Enjoy the lush green grass and a perfect summer vibe. 🎟️ Tickets: Approximately 200 THB. 🚗 Transportation: Driving is the most convenient option. However, if you're unfamiliar with the roads, you can take a bus from Seoul to "Hwingae" station and then hire a taxi to take you directly to the farm.

Sannomi Ranch is a place where you can experience the natural beauty of Pyeongchang, and trekking to the top of the ranch is possible. Follow the signs for Sannomi Ranch as you wind your way up to the high-altitude ranch. From the very beginning, our family was captivated by the sight of black goats grazing freely at Sannomi Ranch! This trekking experience at Sannomi Ranch truly offers a sense of healing. As you ascend the gentle slopes, the breathtaking nature of Pyeongchang unfolds before your eyes. We took a moment to sit and relax before heading back. Wishing you a joyful trip to Pyeongchang!

#CanadaFlightEvent ☃️The ultimate winter atmosphere, Daegwallyeong Sky Ranch✨ I visited Daegwallyeong on a snowy day! It would be nice to ride a tractor and go all the way to the top. I thought it would be really nice to go on a snowy day,,, but when I got to the top, it was really windy.ㅜㅜ If you go on a clear day, you can see the windmill and it would be really nice. You can get off at 3 trail points on the way down, but I got off at the large, lonely pine tree trail point and walked down the trail. Unlike the top, there was snow piled up, so it was good for taking pictures.🫶🏽 Sky Ranch is great in winter, and it would be really nice to visit on a clear day in the spring when it's getting green soon! +Nearby #SilverbellChurch is also a popular place in Daegwallyeong, so I recommend going there together ✔️Admission fee: 8,000 won for adults / 10,000 won for a tractor carriage ✔️There are many spaces where pets can be together. 📍Daegwallyeong Sky Ranch / Gangwon Pyeongchang-gun Daegwallyeong-myeon Heonggye-ri 470-5 #Travel plan #Domestic travel #Outdoor date #Korea #Daegwallyeong #Gangwon-do travel #Gangwon-do #Places to visit in Gangwon-do #Sky Ranch #korea #koreatrip

#June travel support event #Pyeongchang places to visit #Silverbell church #Rising hot place Silverbell church. Pyeongchang Address: 5107 Gyeonggang-ro, Daegwallyeong-myeon, Pyeongchang-gun, Gangwon-do. It is open 24 hours, so anyone can enter. A church on a hill that you can see when you get off at Daegwallyeong IC on the Yeongdong Expressway. It does not seem to be a church affiliated with a religious group, but rather a symbolic building. The reason is that there is no information about the affiliated denomination, and if you look at the reason for its construction, there is a sign saying that it was built for parents. If you park at the entrance and go up, you will see alpacas, donkeys, ponies, and a short train track, so it is good for taking pictures. In winter, you can see a church covered in snow, and in summer, you can see green grass.
