A bison enclosure near Pszczyna

The Bison Breeding and Forest Education Centre operates in Jankowice within the Kobiór Forest District, a short drive from Pszczyna, Tychy and Bielsko-Biała. It was set up in 1996 to protect the species and holds the status of a partial reserve. Most of its area remains closed to visitors so that the herd can live away from human contact.

What to see

Only the show enclosure is open, reopened after a thorough modernisation in 2020. It holds a few animals from a herd of around forty — the rest stay out of sight of visitors. Nature boards and benches are placed along the route, and the Ecological Education Centre runs classes for groups.

Good to know

A visit takes about an hour. The route is level and passable with a pushchair, but because of the animals dogs are not allowed.

  • Car park
  • Ticket desk
  • Path along the enclosure with information boards
  • Benches and shelters
Visit duration: approx. 1 hour Seasonality: Open all year
