On the outskirts of Czarna Białostocka, nestled in a forest clearing, lies the Czapielówka Reservoir. A ten-year project completed in 1981, it is now one of the town's main attractions. Its location in the Knyszyńska Forest guarantees peace, natural beauty, and tranquility. Several access points to the water are available, including a safe swimming area by the pier, which is monitored by lifeguards during the summer. We recommend hiking or cycling along the reservoir's shoreline. A stroll along the picturesque path, sometimes through the forest, sometimes by the water's edge, offers charming bridges and the surrounding nature, providing a welcome escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. https://wielkilas.pl/miejsca/zalew-czapielowka/

Opposite the parking lot on the other side of the road we have the entrance to the Rybniki - Krzemianka walking and cycling trail. After 500m through the forest we have 300m of beautiful wetlands with a view of the valley, river and a shelter with a table. Being here it is worth visiting there. The trail goes further but at least the 800m to the shelter is definitely worth walking.

This is the entrance to the Rybniki - Krzemianka Reserve hiking and cycling trail. From the road we have 500m of forest with a good forest road, then 300m of road along beautiful wetlands and we have a shelter with a table and a bike rack. There are beautiful views of these wetlands. Then the trail goes through various forests and meadows. You can meet many different rare birds in these wetlands and other animals.

Signs at the entrance to the reserve inform about the ban on cycling. In the season, on a nice weekend, there are a lot of visitors. I suggest planning a trip outside of the obvious days and times.

One of the viewing terraces in the reserve. Very well maintained - looks brand new. There is also a great information board about the local springs feeding the Krzemionka stream: according to the information, such springs are rare in Poland, so they are protected here. Most of these springs are oval in shape and animals use them to drink water.
