Travel to Pyeongchang with Pets

Recently, more and more cafes, pensions, and hotels accept pets. However, there are many things to prepare in advance for traveling with dogs than traveling alone. In particular, you must consider motion sickness, hygiene, and unexpected events to have pleasant and special memories. Here are some of the major tourist destinations in Pyeongchang where you can leave during the social distancing period.

Vasello, Cafe in the Woods

Vasello is a quiet and cool cafe located at 700m above sea level in nature. When you enter Vasello for the first time, a wide green lawn welcomes you. It is a great place for dogs and children to play at. The outdoor terrace and a small pond with the carp are perfect for healing yourself drinking coffee. You can taste pour over coffee that is personally selected from the producing area and made with Vasello’s special roasting method.

The two-storey cafe is constructed with large windows which make your view wide. So it is good to enjoy the scenery outside. It has books, magazines, and comics by the windows, so you can have a time to think while reading them. It is recommended to take a nice photo with your dog on the “Rakcheonjigye (Stairways to Heaven)” after drinking coffee.

Daegwallyeong Sunsu Sheep Ranch

Sunsu Sheep Ranch has the greatest attraction which is that people, animals and nature can mingle together. As the only ranch in Daegwallyeong where you can be accompanied by dogs, it is a great place to make memories with your dogs. You can see a variety of animals such as alpacas, sheep, and goats at the ranch and have a special experience of getting close to animals through a feeding event.

You can heal yourself just by going up to the observation deck and seeing the open scenery that could only be seen on the mountain at 1,000 meters above sea level and also the grazed sheep running around the meadow. Sunsu Sheep Ranch is one of the pleasant travel destinations where you can run and enjoy in nature with your dogs that are relatively limited in outdoor activities.
