Rural stays and regional nature

Agriculture, fishing and tourism shape the municipality. Access routes include the S22, Route 54, and provincial roads 504 and 507. Compare the exact accommodation address with your planned starting point by the river or lagoon.

The larger Braniewski County is home to the “Dolina rzeki Wałszy” nature reserve, the “Ostoja Bobrów” reserve on the Pasłęka, the “Osiek II” peat bog reserve, and “Brzozy niskiej” near Cielętnik. These are distinct regional destinations and are not all located in the same municipality.

The Pasłęka alternates between wild gorge stretches and quieter sections between meadows and marshes. Some areas are inaccessible. Before visiting, find out which specific section is accessible, and do not plan an uninterrupted route based on the river’s name alone.
