Here is the side of the Lodge, we walked the lovely grounds and the lake is next to us from where we are standing.

On the way to the Horse stables now. You can rent a buggy to take you around.

There have been famous people who visited this Lodge, some are Mr.Bill Clinton, Mr. George Bush, and other US Presidents.

They close the street when important visitors such as these are here.

The Paprocany Ponds

Riding a bicycle around Paprocany Lake. It takes 35-60 min.
It is planned (by Tychy self-government) to modernise and expand the existing bicycle tracks around the lake in the vicinity of Paprocany and Promnice.
Note: there are swamps in some places, better not to leave the bicycle track.

I think it would be hunting, am I wrong?

I had a very hard time with this particular subject.

I kept saying "Cheese" but he would not smile, just growl at me.

Maybe they like cheese? Please email me if you know how to make him smile :))

The buildings of Paprocka Steel Factory

Paprocka Steel Works was established in Paprocany in 18th century. Until 1878 in excavated and processed iron ores. A heading left by the plant was flooded by the Gostynka river to form Lake Paprocanskie. Currently, the former steel works buildings are owned by the city and are testimony to the early industrial activity in the area.

Rushes at the Paprocany Lake

Favorite thing: An area of particular importance as a recreational and tourist centre is Lake (Jezioro) Paprocanskie and its surroundings. The "Paprocany" holiday camp accommodates volleyball, basketball, and soccer pitches, as well as an asphalt tennis court. There is also a sports equipment rental there, including a haven, and a boat rental.

Fondest memory: Jezioro Paprocanskie (Paprocany Lake)
