This is likely a command bunker from Project 668 at the so-called Szczycieńska Pozycja Leśna, the "Ortelsburg Forest Position". This fortification line was expanded by the Germans in 1944. The bunker was intended as a protected command post with radio and telephone technology. Interesting: The construction near Spychowo was apparently never completed and remained in its shell state.

Plan in advance to buy some food/drinks as if you'll start you'll ride for long time. Some Exits are tricky to find.

The historic building of the former Dźwierzuty (Mensguth) station. Built in 1908/1909 by Königlich Preußische Eisenbahn-Verwaltung (KPEV) together with the construction of the 262 Szczytno – Biskupiec Reszelski (Ortelsburg – Bischofsburg) railway line. Unfortunately, it has not been preserved to the full extent as can be seen in the archive photo.

It's always an opportunity to stop, have a snack or hide from the rain. In the vicinity of vacant buildings. You can look around.

Beach near the road. There is a convenient parking lot for a dozen or so cars by the road. There is a pier and a bench on the beach. Smooth sand and a gentle approach - very good for younger children.
