AlpacaWorld
Gangwon-do(Hongcheon-gun)

Alpaca World: A Forest Adventure in Hongcheon, Gangwon Province Alpaca World is nestled in the lush, green forests of Hongcheon, in Gangwon Province. This unique destination offers visitors an up-close experience with animals living in natural settings, with alpacas taking center stage. The park features an “Andes Eco Ranch,” which recreates the mountainous terrain of South America’s Andes and is home to about 50 adorable alpacas. A highlight of Alpaca World is the “Relaxing Stroll with Alpacas” program, where you can walk through the verdant forest alongside these gentle creatures. There’s also the Alpaca Playground, a spacious lawn area where visitors can feed and interact with alpacas in a fun, open setting. Another must-visit spot is the Birds’ Garden, which feels like stepping into a fairy tale the moment you walk through its doors. Beyond alpacas, the park is home to a variety of other animals—deer, rabbits, goats, ostriches, camels, owls, and eagles—making it an ideal place for animal lovers of all ages. With so many engaging activities and friendly creatures, you’re sure to leave Alpaca World with plenty of wonderful memories (and photos!). Alpaca World also holds a special place for K-pop fans: it was featured on NCT LIFE in Chuncheon & Hongcheon, where the members visited to relax, competed in fun missions for cart ride tickets, and shared a hilarious moment with a spitting alpaca. Despite the unexpected surprise, they enjoyed their time capturing group photos, making Alpaca World a must-visit spot for anyone looking to follow in NCT’s footsteps—or simply seeking a unique adventure in Gangwon Province.   ​AlpacaWorld Ticket – Korea’s Popular Multi-Animal Park & Performance ◀◁◀◁

Soyangho Lake
Gangwon-do(Yanggu-gun)

Soyangho Lake (소양호) is a man-made lake that was created when Soyang Dam, the biggest rock-filled dam in Asia, was built in 1973. The lake is a hotspot for marine tourism and the lakeside road is an important route that connects Chuncheon and Yanggu. You can travel overland for an hour to get to the dam or take the Kwaeryongho Boat (쾌룡호), a hovercraft that operates regularly on Soyang Lake, and get there in 30 minutes. The hovercraft travels by ejecting air against the surface below, sending up a spray of water on either side of the boat to the delight of passengers. Once you are in the valley, you can see fish farms floating among the islets. When the water level is high, you can travel on the lake all the way to Inje and Sinnam enjoying the beautiful scenery of Naeseorak. Both tourists and locals regularly make use of the ferry service.
