When planning a trip to Borków, several practical considerations come together: the main beach is by the reservoir on the village side, and the “Przez Daleszyckie Lasy” cycling route starts and ends at the car park there. There are also bus connections and riding lessons at the Amazonka Equestrian Centre. This gives you a chance to consider whether cycling, the beach and horse riding fit your travel plans.

How can you fit the cycling route and beach into your plans?

The cycling route has a clear starting and finishing point: the car park by the reservoir in Borków. The 37.8 km ride takes 3 hours without sightseeing and includes 332 metres of elevation gain. These three figures describe different aspects of the ride: distance, riding time and elevation gain. For your day’s plans, it is particularly important that sightseeing is not included in the stated riding time. If you plan to stop along the way, allow extra time for that.

A Green Velo bicycle service point is located near the car park. It is another landmark in the route’s start and finish area. The main beach by the reservoir is on the Borków side. This gives you two different reasons to plan a visit: a cycling route with specific distance and time details, and a beach by the reservoir. You can decide which should be the main focus of your stay.

What role do riding lessons and competitions play?

At the Amazonka Equestrian Centre, you can book any number of riding lessons for dates of your choice, provided they fit the centre’s opening hours. Confirm booking details and your preferred dates directly with the centre. That way, you can fit riding lessons into your own daily schedule rather than assuming a particular appointment time.

Riding competitions are often held on the grounds of the Amazonka stud farm. If you want to plan your trip around a competition, ask about a specific date. The fact that competitions are held frequently does not indicate a particular date. Confirming the schedule is therefore essential when planning a trip to a competition.

How do you get to Borków?

Borków can be reached by minibus on the Kielce–Staszów and Kielce–Połaniec routes. There is also a connection on MPK Kielce bus no. 201. If you plan your journey using one of these connections, check the current service before setting off: route and line information can change.

Then compare the specific location given for a hotel with this focus. If you rely on bus connections for your outings, factor current travel arrangements into your decision as well.
