At the Avesta Bison Reserve you’ll find a cozy barn cafe. They offer homemade swedish fika and lunch dishes to enjoy inside the homely barn cafe or outside in the lush garden.

Please feel free to talk to the staff if you have any food allergies. We have options!

The Avesta Bison Reserve is an attraction for the entire family! It features large green areas to play around in, a cozy playhouse, climbing pole, swings, hopscotch and stilts.

In the play stable there’s boxes and hobbyhorses for the children. Perfect for rainy days. In the small playhouse kids can color their own bison or perhaps make dinner and play bison restaurant?

Dear guest,

To ensure that your visit to Avesta Bison Park is both safe and enjoyable, we would like tell you about our safety rules.

Both domesticated and wild animals should always be respected. European bison are no exception, and the fence is there for your protection. You must not climb the fence, and should always remain calm and quiet when near the fence. This will increase the chances of the bison coming up close.

Do not reach out to the animals. They are not interested in being stroked. Their horns are extremely hard, and they sometimes throw their heads back and forth.

There are a few things that the bison may see as a threat. One example is umbrellas, so avoid using these. They may also see dogs as a threat. For this reason, pets are not allowed to enter the area.

In addition to grass and brushwood, the bison also eat concentrated feed which is given to them twice a day. This is why it is forbidden to feed the bison.

Alcohol must not be brought into the area or consumed here. In view of the risk of fire, please do not smoke after entering the park.

Avesta Bison Park and the European bison welcome you!
