ON THE ROUTE:

  • The route leads through dirt roads and forest paths (watch out for protruding roots).

Biking trail of Krutynia Reserves is a uniquely picturesque route. It starts in Krutyń and leads to the reserves of Krutynia Górna and Królewska Sosna so that you can admire their natural values. The Krutynia Górna nature reserve protects forest, water and peat bog biotic communities living in the upstream valley of the Krutynia river and Lake Krutyńskie, as well as the natural features of the landscape. On the other hand, the Królewska Sosna nature reserve protects forest ecosystem typical to the Pisz Forest and a natural succession in it. There are three dystrophic lakes in the reserve. One of them offers a wooden deck to admire the nature. In the reserve you will pass along two natural monuments: a dead pine named the Royal Pine and the 300-year-old oak named Dąb nad Mukrem, which grow on the shores of Lake Mokre. The route leads along the east shore of the latter. It has diversified and developed shoreline. Some parts of it are high and pretty steep. Its maximum depth reaches 51 m.
