What makes the landscape and nature distinctive?
The lake area of just under 300 ha is the combined area of the municipality’s numerous lakes, not the figure for a single lake. There are also six Natura 2000 sites. These figures provide an overview of landscape features that may be of interest when choosing a travel destination. They describe the municipality as a whole and can be distinguished from the specific route distances.
Which routes can you plan for?
The 5 km combined hiking and cycling route runs from Nowa Karczma to Nowy Barkoczyn, on Jezioro Barkocińskie. It connects the municipality’s administrative and service center with the village by the lake. The stated distance makes the route a distinct option; no walking or cycling time is specified.
Two details are useful for the “Szlak rowerowy im. Józefa Wybickiego” cycling route: it passes through the municipality of Nowa Karczma, and the section from Jezioro Łąkie to Będomin is 12 km long. This is distinct from the green Stolemowe Nordic walking route in the municipality, which is 13.7 km long. This lets you distinguish between a combined hiking and cycling route, a section of a cycling route and a Nordic walking route without confusing their respective distances.
