Honey-Tinged Experience

Bees are amongst the most important pollinators and of paramount importance for humanity. Their ability to create honey from pollen puts them among nature's greatest wonders. Learn how bees go about their daily tasks, see how their life is organized in the beehive and taste the sweetness of their honey.

On a meadow of the Alpine Homestead in the idyllic village of Ročnjek stands a beehive with beautiful decorative beehive panels. Would you like to find out why we say someone is as industrious as a bee? Experienced beekeeper and painter Anja Bunderla will take you on a tour of the bee world and reveal how much truth there is to be found in that saying. This one-hour event will tell you about the rich Slovenian beekeeping tradition, let you take a closer look inside a beehive, listen to the buzzing of the bees and try their produce. You will end this pleasant gathering by snacking on delicacies made with homemade honey.
