The ferry in Wierzba near Mikołajki is a unique attraction in Masuria. A ferry crossing across Lake Bełdany not only saves time on the way to Popielno, but also an interesting way to admire the area from the water. The ferry runs regularly, every hour, and the short cruise lasts only 10 minutes. For cyclists planning trips around Masuria, a ferry crossing can be an interesting diversion and a chance to rest before continuing the ride.

Krutyń is a small town in Masuria, known primarily for the picturesque Krutynia River, ideal for peaceful kayaking and cycling trips around the area. The water route is easy, shallow and full of charming views, and in the season you can use the services of carriers offering trips also on traditional pychówka boats. It is worth visiting the nearby Royal Pine Reserve, where you will see over 300-year-old trees and interesting educational paths.

Lake Piasutno is not very clean, which makes it significantly different from the neighboring lake Nożyce. The bottom is muddy, overgrown with very abundant underwater vegetation. The lake is quite crowded with tourists, and in the season it is littered.
