This dirt track is covered in loose sand. It’s not a deep sand trap, but cross tires will just spin in place and lose grip. You will likely have to get off and push.

Quite a large recreational area next to the marina on Lake Szarlej, with a bike service point, covered shelters, benches, a floating wooden pier, and an interesting sculpture - the bench of Stanisław Przybyszewski.

A manor house from the early 20th century, situated on a slight elevation. It is a single-storey building, eclectic with modernist elements, whose original, almost square shape has survived to this day. From the front, the manor house is decorated with a semicircular portico with a balcony, on the axis of which there is a dormer. The side elevation (from the south-west) is accentuated by a recess with a balcony, topped with a triangular pediment, framed by two side projections. It is covered with a mansard roof decorated with dormers, covered with ceramic roof tiles. All elevations are decorated with rustication. Currently private property. (polskiezabytki.pl)
