If you are travelling by bicycle or using an electric vehicle, the self-service point for repairs and charging may be a useful landmark. As its availability should be confirmed when you arrive, do not count on it as a guaranteed service.

The observation tower on the grounds of the PTTK centre and the Ols educational trail offer different experiences. One is identified as an observation tower, the other explicitly as an educational trail. This distinction can help you choose the places that match your interests, without conflating them with the museum or boat trip. The trail is located in Stary Folwark; the tower is specified as being on the grounds of the PTTK centre.

The Muzeum Wigier im. Alfreda Lityńskiego was founded by Wigry National Park and is located on the shore of Lake Wigry. Its multimedia displays cover the area's natural wealth, history and cultural heritage. This allows you to explore nature and culture together, rather than limiting your visit to just one of these aspects.

Another specific point of interest is the Hydrobiological Station, which operated there from 1927 to 1939. Its achievements are also among the museum's topics. The museum therefore offers both an introduction to regional natural history and a historical perspective for your visit.

As part of the seasonal services announced for 2026 by Turystyczna Ósemka, a trip across Lake Wigry on the eco-friendly Leptodora 3 glass-bottom boat was planned. The boat dock is by the Muzeum Wigier.

If the boat trip is important to your plans, check the dates of the seasonal service before making arrangements.
