Gangwon’s Daegwallyeong Sky Ranch, located on the high plateau around Daegwallyeong, will run hands-on programs for families to mark Children’s Day.

The ranch said it will hold its “Children’s Day Sky Picnic” on May 5. The event period runs from May 1 to May 10, and children 12 and under will be admitted free during that time.

Sky Ranch is a grassland ranch built at an elevation of about 1,000 meters or higher. It is known as a tourist ranch with relatively flexible visitor routes among ranches in the Daegwallyeong area. Its wide pastures and gently rolling hills have continued to draw families looking for outdoor activities.

On the day of the event, the ranch will offer children’s programs, including free face painting on site and a ranchwide treasure hunt. An accompanying social media event will also be held to encourage visitor participation.

Regular attractions will continue as well. A tractor-pulled wagon ride to the top of the ranch will be offered as a paid on-site program, and visitors can feed sheep in an indoor area. The ranch cafe will sell light snacks, including ice cream made with dairy products.

The Daegwallyeong area typically has lower temperatures than cities at the same time of year and is known for strong winds, and the ranch is advising visitors to dress warmly even in spring.

“We prepared these programs to provide an environment where children can run and play in nature,” the ranch said, adding that it plans to operate the event so families can enjoy both rest and activities.

Detailed schedules and visitor information are available on the ranch’s official website and social media channels.
