Bohuslavice – Riding Trail, Animals and Fruit Brandy

Watercourse and riding trail as distinctive features of the area

A watercourse flows through Bohuslavice and later joins the Vápovka. Even without placing a major attraction at the centre of attention, this gives the area a specific connection to the surrounding landscape. Those who pay attention to smaller natural features when planning their trip will find a watercourse here and its connection to the Vápovka.

For horseback excursions, the blue-marked riding trail “Jezdecká stezka Světlá pod Javořicí – Dukovany” is relevant. It passes through Bohuslavice and adds a route to the area. If you like to take existing trails and different activities into account when choosing your destination, this riding trail is a consideration in its own right alongside the watercourse and the facilities at Hospodářský dvůr Bohuslavice.

Hospodářský dvůr Bohuslavice: Animals, horses and exercise

At Hospodářský dvůr Bohuslavice, visitors can see farm animals such as poultry, horses, goats and llamas. There are also exotic animals: visitors can observe a Caucasian deer and an Andalusian donkey there. This combination makes the visit varied in content without requiring the animals to be grouped into a single category. Especially when travelling with several interests, you can distinguish here between familiar farm animals and less everyday animal encounters.

Hospodářský dvůr also includes an outdoor playground connected to an outdoor fitness area. This means that two areas are located side by side on the same grounds: a playground and an outdoor fitness area. Visitors can also lead horses around the riding hall there. For planning your day, this gives you a choice between observing animals, spending time at the playground and interacting with horses.

Bohuslavická pálenka and the local flavour

Another distinctive feature of the area is Bohuslavická pálenka. The original fruit brandy is 100% Czech and is produced at Bohuslavický dvůr near Telč. Plums, pears, apples, peaches, melons, sour cherries and nectarines are used for distillation. The unusually wide selection of fruit varieties gives this speciality a clearly defined regional profile. Those who would like to discover local products in addition to taking excursions will therefore find a specific connection here to the production process and the fruits used.

Unusual types of accommodation in Bohuslavice

Hospodářský dvůr Bohuslavice offers stylish accommodation in a birdhouse, a cottage and a log cabin. These three forms are already clearly distinct in name and give the search for overnight accommodation an unusual focus. You can therefore specifically consider whether the distinctive form of the birdhouse, the cottage or the log cabin best suits your travel plans. No further details about amenities, prices or availability are provided for this selection.

Bohuslavice can thus be discovered on several levels: as a place with a watercourse leading to the Vápovka, as a stop along the blue-marked riding trail, as a destination for encounters with farm and exotic animals, and as the location of an unusual type of accommodation. Bohuslavická pálenka adds a Czech fruit-brandy tradition, including its ingredients and place of production, to these features of the area.
