Gita in bici di un giorno da Ruciane-Nida a Mikołajki

This cycling route takes you from the quaint town of Ruciane-Nida, nestled in the heart of the Masurian Lake District, all the way up to the picturesque resort town of Mikołajki—a true gem for lovers of lakes and sailing.

The ride is about 40 km and, for the most part, takes you along quiet roads and forest tracks—perfect for anyone looking to escape the bustle. More than half of the journey is on unpaved or gravel surfaces, so a gravel or mountain bike is your best friend here. Expect rolling terrain, gentle climbs, and smooth descents as you weave through pine woods and pass shimmering lakes (pack a camera!).

Ruciane-Nida is famous as a gateway to the Krutynia River and its lush nature reserves, while Mikołajki is known as the "Sailing Capital of Poland" and makes the perfect finish for a lakeside drink. This route isn’t tough, but the mix of surfaces will keep things interesting—just the right amount of adventure to enjoy the natural beauty of Masuria. Happy cycling!
