An unforgettable experience could be a ride on a narrow-gauge railway – we get on e.g in Znin and stop along the way in Wenecja to visit Museum of Narrow-gauge Railway, and the ruins of Mikolaj Nalecz’s castle dating at 1390, and finally we reach Biskupin.

Kids could be taken to Dinosaur Park in Rogow - the largest in Poland and one of the largest in Europe.

From the nearby Naklo we could have a trip using an International water way to Bydgoszcz. Or we can decide to have an hour cruise on the Notec River..

Divers and not only will probably be interested in quarries with moufflons in Piechcin . In Wagrowiec you must see an unusual crossing of two rivers the Nielba and Welna called bufurcation. In Barcin you should climb St. Wojciech mountain, and in Annow it’s good to see an erratic boulder. That’s not all that our region has to offer. It’s worth visiting a 4-thousand-year-old tumulusin Zlotowo, a settlement dating at 700-550 BC in Sobiejuchy, and a Luzyce settlement in Izdebna.

Another picturesque place is Weronika village with its half-timbered cottages which are a gem of architecture, there are also similar villages nearby: Polichno, Ludwikowo and Kowalewko with a manor and water mill.

Those who prefer the nature to gems of architecture, we recommend: Grocholin Nature Reserve, Borek Nature Reserve, the Notec River Valley and Bydgoszcz Canal area.

Those who prefer activity holidays we’ll probably choose to spend their time riding along numerous bike routes or to going by canoes along “Old Tale Route”, Paluki Canoe River Loop, the Welna River Canoe Route, the Notec River Canoeing, the Welna River Valley. Vast lakes e.g. Znin Lake are ideal for those who want to practise windsurfing.
