Perła Polańczyka is a yellow-marked circular walking trail. It passes through fields and meadows, with its final section running through a beech forest. You can allow about 1.5 to 2 hours for the loop. Along the way are viewpoints on Kabajka and Horb. Horb is 560 m high and offers a panorama of Polańczyk. This trail therefore combines changing landscape views with a view of the town.

The Cypel Polańczyka walking trail offers a different experience: it leads through a forest down to the shore of a quiet bay. Along the route, you pass numerous sailing jetties, swimming pools and a landing stage for excursion boats. If you are looking for a trail with forest and a stretch along the shore, you can consider this route; Perła Polańczyka, by contrast, offers fields, meadows and the beech forest at the end. The descriptions of the two trails thus give you different landscapes to help plan your time in Polańczyk.

Polańczyk has held spa resort status since 1999. The active ingredients in the local healing waters are used for drinking cures and therapeutic baths. This combination of spa resort and healing waters is a distinctive feature of the town. The spa and wellness facilities are located on a peninsula that extends far out into the waters of the Solina Reservoir. This also helps put the spa resort’s character in geographical context: the facilities are situated on the part of the peninsula that reaches into the reservoir.

The present-day brick church of the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Beautiful Love in Polańczyk was built in 1909. It has been used as a Roman Catholic parish church since 1948. These two dates describe different aspects of the church: the year it was built and when it began to be used as a parish church. The main altar houses an icon of Our Lady of Łopienka, transferred here from the church in Łopienka. For those interested in sacred art and church history, this offers a specific connection to Łopienka alongside the building’s history.

Ekomarina Polańczyk offers boat trips with experienced skippers, as well as the opportunity to steer a yacht yourself. You can choose between a trip with a skipper and the option of taking the helm yourself. These activities complement the walking trails with a different perspective on the waters of the Solina Reservoir.

To compare other destinations, you can also explore Buk, Zahoczewie, Terka, Roztoki Dolne, Solina, Rabe and Myczków. Another destination is Zabrodzie.
