Namhae Sangsang Sheep Farm Hinoki Forest

A special day in nature with your kids, Namhae Sangsang Sheep Ranch Cypress Forest

Animal friends in wide, green nature

Located in Seolcheon-myeon, Namhae-gun, Gyeongsangnam-do, Namhae Sangsang Sheep Ranch Cypress Forest is a family outing spot where vast grasslands of about 100,000 pyeong meet a cypress forest filled with phytoncides. At the ranch, not only sheep but also alpacas, white deer, parrots, rabbits, guinea pigs, and hedgehogs roam freely, giving your family a special chance to connect with animals in nature.

Full of experiences kids will love

1. Animal feeding experience
   With free sheep feed provided at admission, kids can feed sheep or small animals themselves. Baby sheep are very gentle, so even young children can safely touch and interact with them up close. A separate parrot feeding experience area is also available.

2. A walk with white deer
   As you stroll along the forest path, you can meet white deer, a symbol of good luck. You can also closely observe rabbits running freely along the walking trails.

3. Play facilities such as the barrel train and slide
   On weekends, the barrel train experience (paid) is available, and there is also a large slide and an outdoor play area for kids, making it a great fit for energetic children.

A relaxing space for parents

Inside the ranch, there is a cafe with a full view of the Namhae sea, a spacious outdoor terrace, and a rooftop observatory. Parents can relax with a cup of tea while enjoying the refreshing ocean view. At the convenience store and snack shop, you can also buy simple snacks, drinks, and souvenirs.
