Kobylocha on Lake Sasek Wielki

Lake Sasek Wielki is a ribbon lake and lies entirely within a quiet zone. Kobylocha is situated partly on its middle and largest section. The kayak route on the Sawica River passes by the settlement. Kobylocha is home to the Ośrodek Wypoczynkowy „Łoś“ holiday resort and the Ośrodek Wypoczynkowy Sasek on the lakeshore, surrounded by forests.

The quiet zone encompasses the entire lake, while Kobylocha lies only partly on its middle and largest section. The southern basin of Lake Sasek Wielki is nearby. It covers 180 hectares and is surrounded by forests on both sides. This means the landscape extends beyond the settlement to include a larger section of the lake.

The lakebed also has distinctive features: there are numerous deep spots, as well as submerged plants such as pondweed and hornwort, which form underwater meadows. Near the southwestern shore lies an island covering 0.4 hectares. It is marshy and covered with alder trees. These details give the lake area a variety of facets—from its wooded shore to the plants beneath the water’s surface.

At one end of the lake is a marshy canal inlet leading to the smallest, northern part of Lake Sasek Wielki. If you are planning to take this passage on a trip, check the current conditions in advance.

Birdwatching is also part of the landscape. Grey herons can be seen hunting seasonally among the reeds around this section of the lake. A report on the kayak route published in 2016 also describes a forest on the right-hand side of the route, as you pass Kobylocha, with a colony of herons and cormorants.

The Sawica kayak route begins at the northern end of Lake Sasek Wielki and heads south, passing Kobylocha. There is also a 36.5-kilometre kayak route along the Saska and Sawica rivers. It passes through Lake Sasek Wielki, Jęcznik, Janowo, Sędańsk, Lake Sędańskie, Lake Sasek Mały, Kucbork, and Wiebark.

Another option is a cycling route from Piece to Linowo via Szczycionek and Kobylocha. This gives you a choice of a water route or a cycling route in the area. Which one suits your plans depends on whether you want to explore the river and lake route or travel between the places listed.

The Ośrodek Wypoczynkowy Sasek is located at Kobyłocha 11A on the shore of Lake Sasek Wielki and is surrounded by forests. Before your trip, check whether it is currently open. The Ośrodek Wypoczynkowy „Łoś“ is another local landmark in Kobylocha.
