Discover Czosnówka on the Krzna

• Since 2025, residents and tourists have been able to use the newly built walking and cycling path on ul. Bialska.
• The Krzna flows along the northern edge of Czosnówka; a weir is also located on the river there.
• A kayaking route on the Krzna runs for 17.5 km from Styrzyniec to Czosnówka Tama. The stated paddling time is 4–5 hours.
• A railway line runs through Czosnówka.

The walking and cycling path on ul. Bialska is a local option for getting around on foot or by bike. Residents and tourists have been able to use the newly built path since 2025. If you are planning an active stay, you can include the path as a separate activity.

For a longer trip on the water, the 17.5 km kayaking route on the Krzna runs from Styrzyniec to Czosnówka Tama. The stated paddling time of four to five hours gives you a specific timeframe for planning your day. River and operating conditions may vary; check them before setting out.

The Krzna flows along the northern edge of the village, where a weir is also located. The weir’s location on the northern edge of the village should be distinguished from the kayaking destination, Czosnówka Tama. It is also distinct from the kayaking route description: the route description gives Czosnówka Tama as the destination, while the weir is stated to be on the northern edge of the village.

In addition to the walking and cycling path and the kayaking route, there is a suggestion for a longer circular trip. A 2008 guidebook describes a 45 km circular trip on paved roads as a full-day excursion. It passes through Biała Podlaska, Czosnówka, Ortel Książęcy, Ortel Królewski, Studzianka, Łomazy, Dubów and Wólka Plebańska before returning to Biała Podlaska.

The stated timeframes are useful for planning: the kayaking route is said to take four to five hours of paddling, while the circular trip is described as a full-day excursion. This lets you choose between the two plans according to the time you have available.

A historical reference dates back to 1596: at that time, the settlement called Szczosnówka was assigned to the parish of St. Anne in Biała Podlaska.

A family festival has been held in Czosnówka for several years. Around 1,500 people gathered at a family festival that included a competition between village councils of the Gmina Biała Podlaska. The programme included sporting competitions, demonstrations by emergency services, activities for children, musical performances and celebrations together.

First, consider what you want your stay to revolve around: the multi-hour kayaking trip, the circular trip described as a full-day excursion, the walking and cycling path, or the community festival. The stated trip durations can help you plan how to use your available holiday time; for a kayaking trip, you should also take river and operating conditions into account.
