Go down to the shores of Lake Oćwieckie (which is also where the Gąsawka River flows in) when you are in Gąsawka (a village). Beautiful, peaceful and charming. On the edge, some trees seem to bow to the water, leaning over the surface.

Once upon a time, it was supposedly a very nice place that was full of life, but unfortunately it was abandoned by its owners.
