love and respect for animals

Visit the farm

Our farm is home to more than 500 farm animals and poultry, all cared for with dedication and love. You’ll find chickens, roosters, rabbits, pigs, cows, geese, ducks, and horses.

The farm is open to all resort guests, but without a doubt, it’s the little ones who enjoy it the most. Show your children how a duck or a rooster sounds—and let them see their favorite storybook animals come to life.

Free-range farming

The philosophy of our farm is to ensure the animals live well and thrive. That’s why you won’t find any cages here—and our pigs are raised using a “fragrant pig” system. This involves a deep bedding of sawdust enriched with a natural bioenzyme derived from earthworms. The treated bedding breaks down ammonia and eliminates the typical odor, while also keeping the animals warm and dry.

All our poultry are raised exclusively in free-range conditions, and our geese and ducks regularly enjoy their own little wellness center—the pond.

Growing our own vegetables and herbs

To increase our farm’s self-sufficiency, we grow our own vegetables right on-site. We cultivate tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, and a variety of root vegetables. All crops are treated only with natural farm fertilizer that we produce and compost directly on the farm—bringing the quality of our produce close to organic standards.

In addition to vegetables, we also grow a variety of herbs in our garden, which are used not only in our kitchen but also at the bar.

We grow tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, and common root vegetables such as carrots, parsley, celery, and radishes, as well as kohlrabi and cabbage. Our fields also feature legumes, especially peas and beans.

Our homemade farm products

Every year, our resort hosts a traditional pig slaughter event, during which we prepare a variety of beloved meat products. These include sausages, blood sausages, bacon, cracklings, head cheese, dry-cured ham, smoked pork knuckle, and rendered pork fat. Some of these specialties can be enjoyed right in our restaurant, or you can purchase them to take home as a delicious souvenir.

In addition, you can also buy fresh farm eggs or freshly caught trout from us.
