Lake Sniardwy - the biggest one in Poland - lies 200 km north of Warsaw in the middle of Mazury National Park: the famous recreation area full of lakes, pine woods, fish and mushrooms, where rare birds and animals can be seen (for example, the tarpans - wild horses that live only in Poland).
MAZURY: The Great Mazurian Lake District in north-eastern Poland is one of the most beautiful and peaceful places in the world- clean water, fresh air and nature sorrounding you. There are hundreds of lakes in the district- a paradise for those, who love sailing and swimming!
Mazury is Polish “Land of 1000 Lakes”- in fact there are much more of them: small, bigger and huge. Every summer the region is conquered by enthusiastics of sailing, yachting, fishing or walking in huge forrests. You will easly find there places untouched by human feet both as marinas crowded with people.
This region of Poland is famous for it's lovely lakes. Since May till September you'll see hundrets of boats every lake possible. But not only sailing and beautiful landscape make Mazury so interesting. For centuries this land was ruled by Teutonic Knights. Lots of remains - churches and castles are worth a visit.
Swieta Lipka is a must when you are in Mazury. This small village is important because of two reasons -religious (St. Mary's sanctuary) and because it has one of the most beautiful baroque churches in Poland. It's also famous for its 18th century organs - in summer organ concerts are held.
To get to Swieta Lipka you must follow road No 594 from Ketrzyn to Bisztynek. The road is quite narrow but not that bad and it goes through beautiful countryside.Swieta Lipka is definitely worth paying a visit!

impressions of the Mazury Region
Does anyone know a link for Polish Youth Hostels? I'm particuliarly interested in the Mazury Lake District (Olsztyn, Chelmno, Ruciane-Nida, Swieta Lipka) and Pomerania (Gdansk, Malbork). What are the approximate prices?
It's www.ptsm.pl
in Gdansk in summer you can try hostels in students'dorms
Take care

Dzieki!
No nie ma za co-dobrze ze znasz polski, bo strona po angielsku nie dziala :-(
Tak to prawda. Tak à propos, to czy trzeba miec legitymacje Schronisk Mlodziezowych, zeby skorzystac z noclegu?
Nie trzeba-przynajmniej tak wynika z cennika-jesli masz to placisz np 12 zl a jesli nie masz to zdzieraja z Ciebie 15(podalam to przykladowo, nie wiem jakie sa akt. stawki; wydaje mi sie tez, ze powinienes pamietac o rezerwacji-w koncu jakby nie bylo to lato.
pzdr.Anita
Latem moze byc problem ze znalezieniem noclegu, wiec masz racje, ze trzeba zrobic teraz rezerwacje. Ale zawsze pozostaje inna alternatywa - nocleg pod golym niebem.
Pozdrawiam! :) Ronald
Ehe,zwlaszcza w towarzystwie nienazartych komarow i kleszczy ;-)) ale tak powaznie- na Mazurach-z tego co wiem-calkiem niezle jest z baza kwater prywatnych, wiec mysle ze z noclegiem bedzie bez problemu
Anita:-)
I would like to have some information about this area in Poland as we are planning to visit in October 2007. We will be going on a cruise in this area organized with a Swiss travel agent.
What's the weather like and have the bugs having their winter sleep
Hi!
Mazury is very nice and interesting region in Poland - so called "green lungs of Poland", lakeland, many castles and beautiful towns there.
Weather can be warm about 20C, can be rainy and 10 Celsius. --> nobody knows.
:)
Thanks a lot for your infos. Will try and read up as much as possible about this area.
Mazury (Germany-part of Prussia- before the war is a multiculti (Poles, some Germans,Ukrainians- expelled from their homes by Polish comunist in 1947, a dozen of Russians 'old belivers'-so catholic, protestant and ortodox mix) place for yahting, swimming (not so popular in October hahahaha), canoeing, biking, walking.There are some spa centers.Lakes and forests.It's a crowded by tourist place in summer time but not in outmn season.You should be able to find some web pages in German and even English for details.

Have a look at my Mazury page. There will probably be no more mosquitoes then. But it may be quite cold. On the other hand, we have recently had lots of beautiful sunny days in the autumn, so be optimistic.
thinking of visiting the lakes does anyone know where the best place to stay is and what should i not miss seeing we have our own car..
It depends what kind of places you like. Ruciane, for instance, is an attractive place on a lake with a marina etc. but it's quite touristy too. Another such place is Mikolajki. I quite like Zgon, which is a little quieter, but there are a few campsites there. In fact, there are so many places that are attractive in Mazury that it's hard to choose one. Have a look at my Mazury page to read about some of them.
