Lake Sowica is a small, charming body of water located near Prabuty, surrounded by forests and fields, which makes it a peaceful place to relax away from busy routes. It is a good place for a short break during a bike trip, especially if you are looking for peace and contact with nature. There is no extensive tourist infrastructure here, so it is worth taking provisions and something to sit on. Access by bike is possible via local, asphalt roads, although the last section may lead along a dirt road.

A nice route, but you have to be careful when marking the route because it may turn out that someone has plowed the dirt road. 😁
