The gravel road running along the Wieprz and Żółkiewka rivers in Krasnystaw is a picturesque 2-kilometer route, ideal for cyclists looking for peaceful routes close to nature. The route leads through charming riverside areas, where you can admire meadows and oxbow lakes, and with a bit of luck, water birds. The gravel surface is suitable for bikes with slightly wider tires due to loose stones in places. About halfway along the route, you will see the place where the Żółkiewka flows into the Wieprz.
