We will also sell apples offline at our campsite. Tourists staying with us can pluck apples with their own hands and pack them into apple boxes. Our camp staff will help and guide them with this. Guests will be able to choose and pluck the apples they like.
Itβs a fun farm experience for families and kids. You can enjoy the fresh mountain air while picking apples directly from the trees.
We would like to inform you that the apple season is in September and October.
