Sortie rapide à vélo de Mikołajki à Ryn

This ride takes you from the charming lakeside town of Mikołajki to the historic fortress town of Ryn, covering just under 19 km through the beautiful Mazury region. Starting beside Lake Mikołajskie, you’ll roll out of town on mostly quiet roads, catching glimpses of shimmering water and lush forests—keep an eye out for the region’s famous storks!

The route’s mostly paved, with some stretches of gravel and a hint of cobblestones to add variety (no worries, the unpaved parts aren’t too rough). Overall, it’s a gentle ride with lots of scenic countryside and just enough gentle ups and downs to keep it interesting.

As you approach Ryn, you’ll spot its striking red-brick Teutonic castle, perched above Lake Ryńskie. Both Mikołajki and Ryn are perfect for post-ride treats—think pierogi or fresh fish—and a stroll by the water. This is a great option if you want a taste of the Mazury’s best landscapes and towns without too much traffic!
