Tips from the Community

A forest nature reserve established in 1959 on the land of the village of Mała Wieś in the commune of Belsk Duży. The forest area in which the reserve is located is associated with the nearby estate of Mała Wieś. Historical sources indicate that the local larches were admired by King Stanisław August Poniatowski on July 21, 1787. The reserve, still on private land, was established in 1927 with the consent of the owners on an area of 7.44 ha in sections: 15a, b, c. During World War II, the complex was saved from devastation and cutting down, and even later the protected area was increased to 67 hectares (the Germans considered the local larches to be important for the Third Reich). After the war, a nature reserve was established on an area of 336.15 ha (Order No. 157 of the Minister of Forestry and Timber Industry of 5 May 1959), and eventually protected on an area of 332.15 ha.

The Modrzewina forest nature reserve was established in 1959 to protect a very valuable site of European larch (hence the name of the reserve). There is an approximately 5-kilometer nature trail running through here.

There used to be a path here, but as you can see, it is already in an advanced stage of liquidation. The lack of this path cost me an additional 5 km of detours :)

What kind of terrain can I expect on the running trails in Błędów?

The terrain in Błędów is quite diverse. You can expect to run on sandy paths within the desert, which offers a more demanding workout, as well as through wooded areas surrounding the desert. Some trails might also feature sections near the Biała Przemsza River, providing a mix of surfaces and scenery.

The easier, shorter loops are a good starting point. Always check the route details for distance and elevation to ensure it matches your family's fitness level.

Can I bring my dog on the running trails?

Generally, dogs are welcome on trails in natural areas like the Błędów Desert, but it's always best to keep them on a leash, especially in areas with wildlife or near other visitors. Be mindful of the sandy terrain, which can get hot for paws in warmer weather, and ensure your dog has access to water.

Are there parking facilities near the jogging routes?

Yes, there are typically parking areas available near popular access points to the Błędów Desert and its surrounding trails. Many routes, like the Modrzewina Nature Reserve loop from Mała Wieś, often have convenient starting points with nearby parking options.

What is the best time of year to go running in Błędów?

Spring and autumn are generally the best times for running in Błędów. The temperatures are milder, making the sandy terrain more comfortable to navigate. Summer can be very hot, especially in the open desert, while winter can bring snow, transforming the landscape but requiring appropriate gear.

What interesting places can I explore near the running trails?

Beyond the desert itself, you can explore several interesting spots. Consider visiting the Trail Through Modrzewina Nature Reserve for a different natural experience, or the historic Podsędkowice Watermill. For a post-run meal, the Stary Młyn on the Jeziorka – Restaurant and Marina is a great option.
