This program is an experiential tourism content designed for people to enjoy walking in nature with their dogs, allowing participants to experience the charm of pet-friendly tourism by leveraging the scenic beauty of the Hantan River columnar joint road.


On May 2, 2026 (Saturday), participants will start from the main stage inside the Hantan River Ecological Landscape Complex and walk a round-trip course of about 2.5 kilometers with their dogs, passing the Bidulginang Waterfall turnaround point before returning. The total duration is approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes.


In particular, Lee Woongjong, a pet behavior expert currently appearing on the KBS show "Dogs Are Incredible," will join the event to provide on-site guidance on basic etiquette and safety management tips needed when engaging in activities with dogs. Before the event, there will also be instructions on basic safety rules and precautions for accompanying dogs.



Applications for participation are available on the Pocheon Petstar website and are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis.
