## Essential facts at a glance

### Location + contact
– Address (road): 강원특별자치도 강릉시 사천면 송암골길 197-13 Korea Data
– Parcel address (jibeon): 노동리 819-13 (commonly shown on listings)
– Phone: 033-641-0232 Korea Data
– Coordinates (official data): ~37.7976676, 128.8294714 Korea Data

### Hours (important: conflicting listings → verify same-day)
You’ll see different closing times depending on the source:
– Official Instagram bio states daily 09:30–16:00 with exit around 17:00.
– Korea tourism dataset lists 09:30–18:00 (last entry 17:00). Korea Data
– Triple shows 09:30–17:00 with last entry 16:00. Guide

Practical takeaway: treat “last entry” as the real constraint, and confirm the current day’s cut-off on their Instagram or by phone before you go.

### Admission pricing (also variable → verify)
Pricing is not consistently published across all aggregators:
– One Korea travel listing shows 15,000 KRW for “farm experience admission,” and separately mentions 3,000 KRW for a calf milk-feeding experience, with animal feed (fodder/hay) described as free; it also warns fees can change.
– A recent Korean blog post also describes 15,000 KRW as a single rate (20 months+), and notes on-site payment. (Blog = less authoritative than official channels.)

Practical takeaway: budget around the 15,000 KRW/person range unless the official account says otherwise, and expect some add-on experiences to be separate.

## What you can actually do there (based on published descriptions)

The farm is described as being organized into multiple indoor sections/houses (commonly described as five), where visitors can enter designated areas to feed or interact with animals under staff rules. Trip Tips

Animals and activities explicitly mentioned in published listings include:
– Seeing animals such as alpacas, rabbits, ducks, ostriches, plus others (goats, horses, cattle, etc. appear in some listings). Trip Tips
– Feeding experiences (fodder/hay/feed) are a core part of the visit in multiple descriptions. Trip Tips
– A highlighted, distinctive activity is calf milk-feeding (송아지 우유주기 체험). Guide
– One description mentions hands-on catching experiences with fish or catfish. Guide

I’m intentionally not claiming specific animals beyond what’s published above—many blogs add details that aren’t consistently confirmed across official-ish listings.

## How to plan your visit like a local (the details that save you time)

### 1) Aim for earlier arrival than you think you need
Because multiple sources emphasize last admission (and those times differ), the safest play is arriving well before last entry. Guide

If you’re traveling with kids, earlier also tends to be calmer and makes it easier to take your time across the different sections without rushing.

### 2) Treat the official Instagram as the “most current bulletin”
Their Instagram profile includes operating-time guidance and is the closest thing to a living “notice board” that updates faster than big tourism databases.

### 3) Build the visit around the “hands + snacks” reality
Feed-based interaction is central here, so plan for:
– Hand hygiene (wash/sanitize after feeding areas)
– Clothes you don’t mind getting dusty
– A calm approach if you’re traveling with anyone who’s anxious around animals or strong smells (farms can be sensory-heavy)

These aren’t “fun facts”—they’re the difference between a great 60–90 minutes and a stressful one.

### 4) If animal welfare is a concern, watch the rules and the vibe
This is a high-contact attraction. The best signal you can use on-site is whether staff enforce boundaries (no chasing, no rough handling, clear feeding rules). If you don’t like what you’re seeing, it’s okay to keep the visit shorter and focus on observation over interaction.

## Getting there (what’s verifiable)
A mainstream Korean travel listing notes the farm is about a 14-minute drive from Jumunjin Intercity Bus Terminal. Guide

Beyond that, any exact bus routing or taxi pricing tends to change—so I won’t “invent” those details. If you’re self-driving, multiple listings also indicate parking is available and described as free on at least one tourism listing. Korea Data

## Two contextual internal links you can add (if these pages exist on RealJourneyTravels.com)
If your site already has relevant Gangwon/Daegwallyeong-area content, these two internal links will feel natural and helpful:
1) Daegwallyeong Sheep Farm (great “compare & contrast” for a more scenic, walking-focused animal stop vs. a high-interaction farm)
2) Daegwanryeong Natural Recreation Forest (pairs well if readers want fresh-air trails before/after an indoor-heavy animal experience)

(If those exact URLs don’t exist, keep the anchor text and point to your closest equivalents—same intent, clean IA.)

## Outdated-data flags (read this before publishing)
A few key fields are not stable and should be treated as “verify before you go / before you publish”:
– Operating hours and last entry vary across sources.
– Pricing appears to change and may be packaged differently (base entry vs. add-on experiences).

If you want this post to stay evergreen, add a one-line note in the “Plan your visit” section: “Hours and prices can change seasonally—check the official Instagram or call ahead.” That statement is supportable by the conflicting published hours + the pricing-change warning.
