There is no question of boredom here! Well, unless that's what you want. Our house is located in a beautiful place in Masuria, right next to the forest, and nearby there are small and charming lakes. We recommend walking, cycling, Nordic walking and mushroom picking just outside the fence. At home you will find: books, board games, a fireplace and a bathtub in one of the bathrooms, and our terrace is perfect for communal feasts.
Less than a kilometer from us there is a rural beach on Lake Czarna Kuta. There are also several other beaches quite close, we will share with you the directions to our favorite places. There are also lakes in the area: Wiedza Kuta, Krzywa Kuta and Wilkus. And north of the latter, the Piłackie Wzgórza Reserve, which may surprise you with its terrain reminiscent of foothill regions.
The Masurian Legends and Stories Trail runs through Kuty, a loop of approximately 100 km. You can cross it by bike. For two wheels, we also recommend: the Masurian Bicycle Loop (i.e. about 300 km of routes completed in the summer of 2023, connected near Węgorzewo with Green Velo), the Mała Pętla Mamr, the Węgorzewska Loop or the Great Loop of Lake Stręgiel. There is a very pleasant 18 km long bicycle route around Lake Gołdopiwo.
While at the above-mentioned Gołdapiwo lake, see the Przerwanki lock on the Sapina River. You can cross it by kayak. Sapina connects Kruklin, Patelnia, Gołdapiwo, Wilkus, Pozezdrze, Stręgiel and flows into Lake Święcajty. Its kayaking trail is 35 km long. Along the way, you can see the ruins of a destroyed railway viaduct in Grądy Kruklaneckie and a historic wooden (partly brick) fisherman's house.
We can help you organize the trip. We also have a friend who is a fishing guide and can take you to places where you will definitely catch something.
