Sagamihara Asamizo Park Primo Petting Animal Plaza (プリモふれあい動物広場)

Flow of the course

About this spot

This is a plaza within Sagamihara Asamizo Park where you can enjoy hands-on time with animals. It's home to familiar animals such as ponies, goats, and guinea pigs, so even a child touching an animal for the first time can get comfortable at their own pace. Since it's tucked into one corner of the park, it's easy to stop by casually while strolling through the grounds. The animals' activity level varies by season and time of day, so visiting in the lively morning hours gives you a good chance to see them moving about. Take a leisurely stroll here before the afternoon's water play.

Tips

Hands-on experiences and pony rides may run at set times. Check the on-site signage for the day's schedule when you arrive. Always wash hands after touching the animals, and remind children not to eat snacks with those hands. Shade is limited, so don't forget a hat.

Best time to visit

About 1 hour. Early morning, when the animals are most active, is recommended.
