A 60 hectare organic farm in the heart of the Carpathian mountains close to the Ukrainian and Slovakian borders and two hours by train from Kraków. The focus of the ranch is on riding Hutsul horses (a traditional Carpathian breed) for short trips of 1-3 hours or longer rides through forests, villages and abandoned agricultural land. Guided walks are provided for in or around the Eastern Carpathians Biosphere Reserve and Bieszczady National Park, tracking deer, wild boar, wolves and bears. The ranch is totally off-grid; electricity is provided by windmills and solar panels, and the owners have created a private wetland nature reserve for wild orchids, junipers and beavers.
