The complex is often part of tours around Belarus, including excursions from Minsk. On the website Ekskursii.by, you can book an excursion with a visit to this unique estate — and gift yourself unforgettable impressions from experiencing Belarusian rural culture and nature.
History of Creation
The creation of the "Raysk" farmstead began with the idea of reviving a piece of Belarusian paradise — peaceful, soulful, and sincere. The owners invested their hearts into the project, restoring traditional building techniques. All the houses are built in the style of old Belarusian architecture: two-story wooden cottages made from natural materials — pine, aspen, birch. Each cottage is built from a single type of wood, giving each home its own unique atmosphere and energy.
A special point of pride for the hosts is the Russian wood-fired sauna, constructed from black alder — a rare and noble material. It’s a place not only for cleansing the body but also for relaxation and mental reset. Originally, "Raysk" was created as a family farm, but over time it transformed into a popular agro-tourism destination, welcoming visitors from all over Belarus and abroad.
Infrastructure and Nature
The infrastructure of the "Raysk" complex is thoughtfully designed to ensure that guests feel at home. On the premises, there are several cozy wooden cottages with stove heating, a Russian sauna, a large swimming pond, and a boat station — a great spot for water activities during the warm season. Children can play in the fresh air, ride in a boat, or observe the animals.
The pride of the complex is its unique park of decorative birds and animals. Peacocks roam freely across the territory, creating the impression of a fairy tale. In the enclosures and petting zoo, visitors can see over 20 species of pheasants, partridges, ferrets, rabbits, squirrels, chipmunks, raccoons, and even roe deer. This living corner of nature delights guests of all ages. The local cuisine features only natural products and traditional recipes: fragrant pies, stewed meat, homemade pickles, and honey from the farm's own apiary.
Excursions with a Visit to the Complex
The agro-tourism complex "Raysk" is included in a number of popular tours around Belarus, including themed routes focusing on ethnography, agro-tourism, and family leisure. It is especially popular as a stopover during excursions from Minsk, particularly along the route to Logoysk, Pleshchenitsy, Gayna, and other natural and historical locations in the Minsk region.
Visiting the complex can be part of a large bus tour. Guests are offered a guided tour of the grounds, with stories about the construction of the houses, the breeding of animals and birds, and the specifics of the farmstead. A tasting of traditional rural cuisine is also available. You can book an excursion with a visit to the "Raysk" farmstead on the website Ekskursii.by. This journey will bring warm memories, a sense of peace, and a desire to return again.
