The Laufpump in Międzychód is a cast-iron pump from 1912, located at the intersection of Kilińskiego and 17 Stycznia Streets. It draws water from a 150-meter-deep artesian well, rich in trace elements, including iodine, magnesium, and sulfur, with a noticeable odor of hydrogen sulfide. Locals enjoy using it for culinary purposes, appreciating the water's unique flavor. Next to this well, there is another artesian well in town, and their presence contributed to the establishment of a local spa in 1925. When passing through, be sure to make a short stop and sample the natural, mineral water straight from the pump.

Międzychód Municipal Lake is a popular reservoir with a maximum depth of 6.4 meters, located almost in the city center. A promenade runs around the reservoir, and Oskar Tietz Park stretches along the western shore. The eastern shore is a recreational area with a swimming area and a holiday center, ideal for summer breaks. Cyclists can easily combine a visit to the lake with a tour of the nearby Natura 2000 and Noteć Forest areas.

The Opaliński Castle Museum in Sieraków is housed in the rebuilt southern wing of a former fortress from the late 14th century, once owned by the Nałęcz family, and later the Opaliński family. The current building was rebuilt in the 1990s to house, among other things, the Opaliński family sarcophagi discovered in 1991. Exhibitions present the history of the Sieraków region – from archaeological finds to the present day. The building is located in the city center, near the Warta River, making it a good stopover on a cycling route. It's worth visiting the interior to see the historic coffins and learn about the region's history.
