Upałty is not the exact center of the Great Masurian Lakes. You will find us away from intense water and road traffic. We are surrounded by nature, and you get peace and quiet for free.
We are located 7 kilometers from Giżycko, the sailing capital of Poland. In the vicinity there are forests of the Borecka Forest and there are lakes: Upałckie Duże and Upałckie Małe, which you can reach on foot in 1 minute. It may happen that forest animals appear near the house - deer, foxes and hares, beavers and even badgers. And the birds singing here are constant.
Inside and on our green area, we have prepared for you:
– a large terrace "in the air", from which you can freely cast a fishing rod and relax in the shade of ivy,
– a covered, almost 40-meter terrace (where you can turn on a string of lights in the evening) with swings and a sofa,
– a place for a bonfire (you will have sticks, stumps and a fireplace at your disposal, and even a smokehouse - if you would like to smoke fish, we will be happy to help).
– table on the terrace for outdoor breakfasts,
– in the lower part of the plot there is a wood-fired sauna, where we will prepare a session for you if you wish (one 3-hour session is included in the price of the stay, the others are charged additionally),
– a stocked pond full of carp, sturgeon, grass carp, pike and various other fish; we live in harmony with nature, we catch and release fish ourselves and we ask you to do the same).
You will reach Lake Upałckie Małe in a minute. There is a municipal swimming pool above it. There is also a fishing spot (you can buy a permit from your neighbor). You will reach the second lake in 3 minutes. There is no beach on it, there are mostly private descents, but our neighbor will be happy to take you on a boat trip along it. We are also close to the small Kąpskie lake and the Kruklin fishing spot.
The surroundings of Giżycko are full of tourist attractions:
– Boyen fortress in Giżycko,
– the unique Marian Sanctuary in Święta Lipka,
– Wolf's Lair in Gierłoż,
– blown up railway bridge in Kruklanki,
– the Sapina River, along which you can go kayaking.
There will be a subjective guide to places worth seeing and tasting.
