Mazury, the land of a thousand lakes.

If you do not have enough water and sand yet, it’s definitely worth going from Gdansk to Mazury, in the south east of Poland.


Between Gdańsk and the town of Mikolajki in Mazury is around 250 km.
Why is it worth going there?

Mainly because of the beauty of this region and a huge number of lakes. The largest is Śniardwy and the longest is Jeziorak. Lying south of Giżycko – Niegocin is the third largest.


If you like active holidays, I recommend sailing. It is the biggest and the best attraction in Mazury. In every port you can rent a boat or a yacht and sail out to the lakes.

If you do not have sailing licenses, canoeing is equally attractive 😉
The river flows through a landscape and water and forest reserve, the current is very slow, and the river shallow and full of natural curves that create a beautiful landscape.

As a starting point I recommend the town of Mikolajki, Gizycko or Olsztyn – the capital of Mazury.

So what do you think about Mazury?
