At the biggest brown bear Sanctuary across Europe, there has been accomplished something novel.
Inside the third big enclosure, it has been created a closed and protected space. From here one can observe the bear in his own “yard”, in his natural environment, without getting in contact with each other.
Through a 35 m long,1,25 m wide and 2,2 m high tunnel, you can get into the inner part of the enclosure, in an octagon shaped observation point which is placed 3 m under the ground, 30 m inside the enclosure and at a 15 m distance from one of the big pools from this enclosure. In this 9 square meters big space there is place for approximately 10 persons who have the possibility to observe the bears threw the 7 safety glasses.
This bunker has been built in a special way. The masonry has been preformed and the inner reinforcement is a metal one. A concrete block has been poured and in order to prevent possible flooding due to water springs discovered during excavations a drainage system has been created around the bunker, the water being directed to the bear’s pool.
