The only river crossing in Poland, the second in Europe in Wągrowiec, although very impressive, is not a natural phenomenon. It was created during drainage works in 1830. They changed the place where the Nielba flows into the Wełna, so that it falls exactly at the point where the Wełna flows apart. This solution was designed by Adalbert Schulemann from Bydgoszcz in order to protect Wągrowiec (then called Wongrowitz) from being flooded by flood waters of both rivers. Drainage works were also intended to ensure that the Wełna waters were adequately dammed during droughts, so that a water mill could operate on it. (wagrowiec.pl)

Lots of benches make this a nice place to stop and rest for a bit. At the south end of the lake the cycling is not allowed and you must walk your bike through the boat yard.

Church of St. Nicholas the Bishop in Skoki - a Roman Catholic parish church located in the town of Skoki in Wągrowiec County. It is located on the trail of wooden churches around the Zielonka Forest. The temple was built in 1737 by the foundation of Michał Kazimierz Raczyński, the voivode of Poznań, through a thorough expansion of the previous, wooden one. Restored many times. The last renovation was carried out in 2005-2011.
