Mazurian Lakes - North East
We would like to tempt you to spend an attractive holiday in Northeast Poland. This is intended especially for those who enjoy an active holiday: for those who like water sports, or close contact with nature, and for those who are looking for peace and quiet, for everything that can bring perfect regeneration of psychic and physical powers.
Northeast Poland is an area with many lakes and rivers, offering splendid conditions for sailing, wind surfing, canoeing, and water skiing. Amateur fishermen will find many smaller lakes and rivers teeming with various kinds of fish: eels, bream, perch, European catfish, crucian carp, burbot, bleak and much sought-after members of the salmon family, the lavaret and European whitefish.
Many Polish touroperators organise hunting expeditions in the extensive forests and woods, and also offer photo-safaris for nature lovers, and for bird-watchers the chance to observe many species of birds in their natural habitat. Many rare animals and birds can be found here (elk, roe-deer, European bison, foxes, beavers, wolves, lynx, cormorants, swans, grey herons, cranes, ruffs, double snipe, and wood grouse). The most important areas from the viewpoint of the natural environment are protected in numerous nature reserves and three scenic parks.
In Northeast Poland, they offer you holidays in fully furnished holiday chalets in the Szczytno region; summer and winter holidays at Mragowo; canoeing down the Krutynia river; boat trips through the mazurian lakes and the Elblag Canal; pleasure cruises on the Vistula Bay, with visits to the most interesting ports; excursions to the most attractive towns of the region; picnics, camp-fire excursions and britzka rides; visits to nature reserves and stud farms; arrangements to hire motor boats, sailing boats, canoes and ice-boats.
Although the wonderful scenery and natural environment bring most people to Northeast Poland for summer holidays, the region is equally attractive in other seasons of the year. In autumn, there is the hunting season and the opportunity to pick fruit and mushrooms in the woods. And in winter, when the smooth surface of the lakes is covered with ice, and a thick carpet of snow lies on the ground, there are excellent conditions here for ice-boating, skating and cross-country skiing. A few years ago the region hosted the world ice-boating championships and an international sailing competition, and, in 1984, also a great skating marathon, in which Dutch skaters took part.
In addition to the natural splendours of the region, you can also find here magnificent historic buildings, museums, and other sites linked with major historical events. There are also interesting cultural events organised here: the Festival of Sung Poetry at Olsztyn in July; the International Ballroom dancing Competition at Olsztyn in May; the "Country Picnic" which has already become a tradition at Mragowo in August; and many other folk and musical performances.
The Northeast region of Poland is very popular with foreign tourists, many of whom visit it each year.
