A nice descent to the pass through the Radzyny Reservoir, then you have to work your way up the hill :) It's doable, good variety.

An elegant spot. A huge roof with an impressive number of tables. In addition, a barbecue area with work tables. A separate place for a bonfire. An impressive place :)

Built in 1998–2000 using a natural river valley. It consists of two dams and the resulting connected reservoirs. There must be a lot of fish here. https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zbiornik_Radzyny

The footbridge, or rather its immediate surroundings, hides a certain secret. I recommend stopping and looking around. Maybe you'll find hidden animals. ;)

The reservoir was created several years ago as a result of damming the waters of the Sama River. It was divided into two parts, separated by the dam in Radzyny - Radzyny Małe and Radzyny Duże.

An interesting looking church, unfortunately a service was happening when I arrived and a man in Lycra with a noisy rear hub is not very welcome in such situations.

A very interesting Gothic parish church in Kaźmierz. Made of red ceramic tiles, covered with a high roof covered with red tiles. The facades are decorated with pointed arch windows.
