Bugac is the most popular and the biggest part of the Kiskunság National Park, lying 38 kilometres from Kecskemét. It is a popular destination for nature-friends and for tourists who are searching for complex services and programmes in a wonderful surrounding. Already in the middle of 1930's ministers, diplomats and rulers paid here their respects. Bugac is not only a natural relict, but also much more; the medium of one piece of our cultural history, having wild shepherding and agriculture of detached farms. Bugacpuszta is easy to find, why boards are showing the right way.

Further you can see the stables where you can get acquainted with the most ancient species of animals: for example racka-sheep, Hungarian mangalica as well as swallow paunch mangalica pig, grey donkey. Opposite to the stables you can find the conical building of Pastoral Museum. The exhibition of museum built in the style of horse-driven mills shows the shepherd's life on the prairies of Kecskemét and fauna and flora in the sand areas. After visiting the museum we invite our guests to a little excursion into the Ancient Juniper wood. The first part of it leads through a planted pine-forest to a lookout tower, from which an excellent panorama opens on the Ancient Juniper wood. The 800-hectare area is a Biosphere Reserve. In morphological form this is the most various one among the areas of the park, here is the biggest proportion of sand hills. The particular saw-legged grass hooper is living here, which is very interesting, because we can meet it only in this area on the lowlands. Such endangered species are still living here like sans viper. The most often occurring animal is however the rabbit, feasting the plants of environs. And if plants in sand hills came already to question we definitely have to mention the sand iris, the sand colchicum and the maiden pink. To walk around these interesting paths takes form one hour to more days. We can ensure accommodations in our romantic farmhouses.
