Travel Tip: Buffalo Farm Smrhov, hidden gem that you will not find in travel brochures

Dear Steemit friends and followers,

Welcome to my Travel Tip series where I promote some of the most beautiful places, interesting landmarks and impressive architectural sites of my homeland, the Czech Republic.

Today, I have something special for you as I will take you to a very interesting place that is practically unknown to foreign visitors – the Buffalo Farm Smrhov.

Located in the picturesque village of Smrhov, some 16 km (10 mi) outside the very touristy and famous town of Cesky Krumlov in the South Bohemian Region, the Buffalo Farm Smrhov is a large buffalo ranch that offers accommodation to its visitors.

Surrounded by beautiful landscape of the Malse River, the buffalo farm was recently reconstructed, currently offering 3 fully-equipped apartments (for up to 14 people), a swimming pool, jacuzzi, playground for children and much more.

Visitors of the farm can choose from a variety of outdoor activities from cycling and mushroom picking to horseback riding and playing tennis but it comes as no surprise that it’s the buffalos that usually draw most of the guests´ attention.

These majestic mammals used to be native to the country until few centuries ago when they were, sadly, driven to extinction. The animals have been recently reintroduced to the Czech Republic as they are now kept in several locations, including the Smrhov farm, where visitors can watch them grazing on extensive pasturelands.
