Tips from the Community
The Węgorzewski Canal is a picturesque section of the Masurian waterway network, connecting Lake Mamry with the port in Węgorzewo. Less than a kilometer long, it runs alongside the Węgorapa River, and its banks create a pleasant place for walking and cycling thanks to a modernized pedestrian and bicycle path. It's a peaceful place where you can observe waterfowl and beavers, and in summer, relax at the nearby Mamry municipal beach.

The railway water tower in Węgorzewo is an interesting technical monument from 1909, located right next to the railway station. The 38-meter-high structure houses a steel, riveted Intze tank with a capacity of 100 m³. Although it has not been used since World War II, it has been preserved in good condition and is a characteristic element of the city's landscape. Cyclists passing through Węgorzewo can easily see it - it is a short but interesting stop on the route.

A beautifully situated 920-meter-long canal connects the Węgorzewo marina with Lake Mamry. Yachts and Masurian Shipping vessels ply the canal. The canal was built to shorten the stretch of water connecting Lake Mamry with the Węgorzewo port. The winding Węgorapa River was too difficult to navigate (officially, swimming is prohibited on the section that bypasses the canal). A pedestrian and bicycle path runs along the canal, a favorite strolling spot for residents and tourists, offering opportunities to admire the natural scenery and the sights of ships and yachts passing through. Nature is truly alive near the canal and on the island – beavers feed and birds gather. A Natura 2000 protected area is located nearby. You can see grey herons, red-necked grebes, bitterns, mergansers, cranes, and kites nearby. https://mazury24.eu/atrakcje-turystyczne/kanal-wegorzewski,342

Since one of the long jetties was always free, we used it as a bathing island or bathing base...👍👍👍

This lake, the second largest in Poland, is a group of six interconnected lakes (Mamry, Kirsajty, Kisajno, Dargin, Święcajty and Dobskie). Its other amazing feature is that it has more than 33 islands. Some are home to many wild birds and are therefore classified ornithological reserves.
