Waglikowice: Nature Trail and Lakes

Waglikowice is located in Wdzydzki Landscape Park. For a nature-focused stay, the “Szlakiem pięciu jezior” nature trail offers a specific highlight. It starts at the map next to the school in Waglikowice; the route passes through areas around the landscape park. Forest, river and lakes are distinct landscape features in and near the route. This makes it possible to understand the area through specific natural features, without reducing the landscape to a single type of shoreline.

The “Szlakiem pięciu jezior” nature trail

The nature trail is six kilometres long and has five stops. The route also includes a shelter and benches. Its length and number of stops give you concrete points of reference for planning your walk: take your own pace and the breaks you want to take at the shelter or on a bench into account. This lets you fit the route length and rest options into your day together.

The nature trail includes a specially designated, fenced bird sanctuary hidden in the forest. Nectar- and fruit-bearing shrubs and trees grow there. Its woodland setting, enclosure and plantings offer a different focus from the riversides and lake shores in the surrounding area. The bird sanctuary thus adds another aspect of the landscape to consider along the route.

The river and nearby lakes

The trail also leads to the Dębrznica. Upstream from the bridge, a beaver dam can be seen nearby. River conditions and visibility can affect whether you can observe it; if you are looking for the dam, take these changing conditions into account when planning.

The two lakes also offer different shoreline landscapes. The first stop on the nature trail is Kramsko Małe, considered a clean lake with gently accessible shores. Conditions at the lake and shoreline access may vary seasonally. Kramsko Duże, by contrast, has steep, wooded shores, with reeds along the water’s edge. At Kramsko Małe, the first stop and gently accessible shores shape the impression; at Kramsko Duże, the wooded slopes and reeds by the water take centre stage. This comparison helps you distinguish the different landscape features in the area around the trail.

Maps for orientation

The Centrum Usług Turystycznych at ul. Stolema 3, 83-406 Wąglikowice, provides maps showing cycling and hiking trails. The maps therefore offer guidance for both types of travel. If you need a specific map for your plans, check with the centre in advance to find out what is currently available. This lets you factor the maps into your own navigation and decide whether to focus your plans on the nature trail or on cycling and hiking routes.
