Szybka przejażdżka rowerowa z Ryn do Mikołajki

This cycling route leads you from the picturesque town of Ryn to the lakeside charm of Mikołajki, right in the heart of Poland’s beautiful Masurian Lake District. The ride covers about 19 km (just over 11 miles), making it perfect for a relaxed half-day outing.

You’ll roll mostly along quiet roads, passing fields, forests, and the occasional glimpse of blue lake waters—a real treat for nature lovers! Most of the surface is smooth and paved, though you’ll hit some gravelly patches and even a bit of cobblestone, so wider tires are a good idea. Don’t worry about big hills; the ascent and descent are gentle enough for most riders.

Starting in Ryn, be sure to check out the impressive Ryn Castle, a historic 14th-century stronghold. Once you reach Mikołajki—often called the “Sailing Capital of Poland”—treat yourself to a lakeside ice cream or a stroll along the marina, watching the boats drift by. This is Masuria at its laid-back best!
