Pstrąg Ojcowski

OUR BROWN TROUT

The tradition of farming the brown trout in the town of Ojców dates back to the 1930s. Founded in 1935 on Duchess Ludwika Czartoryska’s land, the fish farm was one of the first in this area. In 2014, Magda Węgiel and her daughter Agnieszka Sendor leased the unused ponds that otherwise were to be neutralised. Owing to their hard work and full involvement, they have managed not only to revive the brown trout fishery but also to create a place where you can take a rest, relax and enjoy a culinary delight.

THIS IS US: MUM AND DAUGHTER

MUM
DAUGHTER

The Ojcowski Trout Farm is a family business set up by mother and daughter, who wanted to bring back to life pre-war ponds located in the very heart of the Ojców National Park. Our aims are to restore brown trout farming, promote thoughtful and ethical breeding, educate society about regional history and culinary traditions.

FARMING

Only 2% of farming in Poland
Genetically pure breed
Tender, juicy and lean meat
Farmed in crystal clear water in accordance with traditional methods
At least two years of breeding in open trout ponds

The picturesque location, natural microclimate as well as crystal clear and well-oxygenated water from the Młynówka stream give the trout ponds their unique quality. All these factors combined result in an imitation of a mountain stream, that is a natural habitat of the brown trout, which creates excellent farming conditions.
