This time, a rest area for cyclists has been created in Drutarnia, one of the most charming corners of our city. "The Little Panwi Meanwater River Station," as the name suggests, is situated right next to the picturesquely winding river. It can be accessed from Rzeczna Street (opposite Wesoła Street). The new station was designed based on existing ones in Truszczyca, Jędrysko, and Zielona. It features standard street furniture such as benches, bike racks, tables, and trash cans. There are also plans to add information boards with maps, a bike repair station, and an educational trail around the station. This is the fifth bicycle station to be built in our city, connecting the two most distant districts of Kalety. Interestingly, the distance between the station in Drutarnia and Zielona is approximately 16 km. Summer is a great time for cycling. We encourage you to visit
