Lake Hańcza is the deepest lake in Poland, with a maximum depth of 108.5 meters. It is located in the Suwałki Region, surrounded by the picturesque hills and forests of the Suwałki Landscape Park. The lake boasts crystal-clear waters, attracting not only anglers and kayakers but also divers from across the country. Cyclists can enjoy attractive, undulating trails around the lake, offering beautiful views of the lake and numerous erratic boulders.

This is also the starting point of the "Poglacial Gully of Lake Hańcza" educational trail—a hiking trail approximately 10 km long that leads from Stara Hańcza, with its historic manor house and park, along the eastern shore of Lake Hańcza, and then through the Czarna Hańcza River valley to Turtul. The trail features shelters, campfire areas, and educational information boards.

Ruins of the Manor in Stara Hańcza

Highlight • Historical Site

It's a shame that this is all that's left of the beautiful palace. Unfortunately, this is not an isolated case, which is something to be regretted.

An interesting place where you can get a little educated. There is a small beach nearby on Lake Hańcza.

Lake Pogorzałek

Highlight • Lake

Lake Pogorzałek, located near Hańcza in the Suwałki Region, is a quiet, rarely visited body of water, ideal for a rest during a bike trip through this picturesque region. Surrounded by fields and forests, the lake attracts lovers of silence and wildlife, and its shores are natural and rather wild, without much tourist infrastructure. Access by bike is via local asphalt and dirt roads, which can be sandy, so it is worth having well-chosen tires. It is a good place for a short stop, photos and contact with nature away from popular trails.
