Obora near Tábor: Family Brewery and Nature

Obora focuses on the family brewery and specific landscape areas. The Obora Family Brewery has operated since 2015 on the Novák family farm in Obora near Želeč by Tábor. It brews beer from its own hops and malt. Its own cultivation thus combines agricultural production with an insight into the beer-making process. Tours of the brewery and hop field with tasting give your stay a clear experiential focus. The tour can therefore be planned as a culinary activity or as part of a nature-oriented day. If you are looking for accommodation, you can first decide whether the brewery or nature should be the focus of your days.

Also located in Obora u Maršova is the functioning local biocentre LBC.1005 “Pod Lesem”, covering 2.28 hectares; it continues into the cadastral area of Želeč u Tábora. The two areas therefore differ both in size and in the documented continuation of LBC.1005. This provides two different scales for orientation: one area associated with Obora u Maršova and a second that continues beyond this cadastral area into Želeč u Tábora. This can help when planning to consider local nature connections and more extensive landscape areas separately.
