It is only a kilometer from the borders of Gdańsk, so you can come to Otomin on foot (maybe not all the way from the center, because from the old town you have to take a tram and then a bus). You can inhale the greenery in the oak and beech forest, relax at Lake Otomińskie, walk in the post-glacial areas, admire peat bogs and huge tree trunks. You can look for a fern flower, but with caution. Ticks often hide on the leaves of ferns, and some varieties of this plant are under protection.
You can also go for a walk in the Otomin Protected Landscape Area, it is there that you will discover peat bogs that look picturesque at any time of the year. The area is under protection, and in the vicinity there is, for example, "Torfowisko Smęgorzyńskie", where an inquisitive amateur biologist can spot an insect-eating sundew.
Otomińskie Lake and its surroundings are a wonderful place. In summer, there is a holiday rest here. Bathing, sunbathing on a wild beach, rustling trees. In autumn, there is an abundance of mushrooms in the forests surrounding the lake. Anglers have their resting place here all year round. On summer weekends, there are plenty of holidaymakers who scare the fish, but spring mornings and summer dawns are the time when you can count on catching a bream or a large pike at least one kilogram. In winter, you can catch a large perch and a nice roach.
After exploring the area, it's time to return to Tabunu to rest. It can be active, in the saddle, in a sleigh during a sleigh ride, on the pitch or quite sedate, on a deckchair, by a fire, in a restaurant with a cider or in our cider house. We have recently had our craft cider factory, where we create delicious alcoholic beverages from old varieties of unspotted apples. You can taste our cider on the spot, buy it for home, talk about the production process and even see how it is made.
Tabun is 4 hectares of fenced area, so the rest area is wide. We have our apple in the eye for you here, i.e. a restaurant (which is also available to guests from the outside), a banquet hut, a safe parking lot, a playground for children, a playground, a grill and a fireplace.
If you have never sat in the saddle, we invite you to the stirrups. We will try to make you skilled riders, chase away the fear of horses and turn it into love for these wonderful animals. We have 20 horses, beautiful galloping areas, an indoor arena and a manege where everyone can learn to ride: old and young, small and large, gifted and less gifted, beginners and advanced. For those who choose not to ride horses, we offer carriage rides and sleigh rides in winter.
Living in the forest has its advantages. We are in no hurry, and if you need a cultural experience, you can go to the Museum of Old Art in Gdańsk and contemplate the masterful Last Judgment of Hans Memling.
For hikers and avid cyclists, we recommend the surrounding tourist routes: Wzgórze Szymbarskich, Kartuski and Skarszewski running along the lake.
