European Bison Show Farm in Wolin National Park is a unique place, located just 1.5 km from the center of Międzyzdroje, along the green tourist trail. The walk to the farm takes about 30 minutes. The area of 28 hectares includes, among others, a 20-hectare enclosure for bisons, of which 0.5 hectares is the show part accessible to visitors. Along the fence, there are special viewing platforms, and the entrance leads through a decorative gate.
The farm is an important breeding center for the lowland bison, whose Wolin line is part of a larger restoration program for this species. In Poland, bison names start with the syllable "PO", referring to the word "Poland". The first individuals were brought here in 1976 from Borek and Białowieża. Currently, most bisons were born on site, and their number ranges from 5 to 12. To maintain genetic diversity, exchanges with other centers are regularly conducted.
You will no longer find the Caucasian bison at the farm, as it was not possible to restore this subspecies – only one bull survived. Today, his descendants form the Białowieża-Caucasus line, and their names begin with the syllable "PU". Besides bisons, the farm is home to other animals – wild boars, roe deer, red deer, and white-tailed eagles – which cannot live independently in the wild. All are under constant veterinary care.
For the convenience of tourists, the farm area has been equipped with benches, tables, shelters, and toilets. Viewing platforms adapted for people with disabilities are also available.
