About

The visit offers a unique opportunity for guests to discover the world of traditional products made from wild fruits and medicinal herbs, as well as to gain insight into the processing of natural ingredients.

During the visit, participants can taste locally made products – including jams, syrups, and herbal teas – and there is also an opportunity to purchase them on site. The program provides an experiential insight into traditional processing methods: if jam or zakuska is being prepared in an outdoor cauldron at the time of the visit, guests can observe the process and may even actively take part in its preparation.

Upon request, the program can be complemented with offerings from local producers in the area. This may include a visit to a mountain shepherd’s shelter (esztena), tasting and preparation of túróspuliszka (curd cheese polenta), animal petting, horse-drawn carriage rides, as well as a visit to a nearby natural attraction, the peat bog.
