The farm welcomes visitors with refreshing, pure breeze and wide-open pastures, a perfect setting for a nature excursion. The Farm is a sanctuary for gentle herbivores like sheep, cows, and ostriches, living freely in this pristine environment. Wander along five distinct trails—each with its own theme, including the Hill of Wind, Leisure in the Forest, Memories of Love, Walk in the Meadow, and Rest of the Mind. Visitors will encounter animal interaction centers, open grazing fields, and wind turbines dotting the landscape, all set against a backdrop free from high rises to ensure an unspoiled atmosphere during their exploration. The farm offers more than beautiful views; it’s a place where one can interact and engage with nature. Seize the chance to feed ostriches and sheep, and if the time is right, visitors can witness the impressive sheepdog performance, where breeds like Border Collies, Malinois, and Kelpies skillfully herd the sheep.
