The Łopuchowskie Boulder Field is a picturesque reserve between Lake Hańcza and Łopuchowo, where seven amphitheatrically arranged terminal moraine ridges create a hilly, rugged landscape. On the steep slopes lie accumulations of granite boulders, while the depressions conceal peat bogs – a great place for a short stop with a view of the "glacial" terrain.

Hańcza Lake

Highlight • Lake

Lake Hańcza is the deepest lake in Poland, with a maximum depth of 108.5 meters. It is located in the Suwałki Region, surrounded by the picturesque hills and forests of the Suwałki Landscape Park. The lake boasts crystal-clear waters, attracting not only anglers and kayakers but also divers from across the country. Cyclists can enjoy attractive, undulating trails around the lake, offering beautiful views of the lake and numerous erratic boulders.

This is also the starting point of the "Poglacial Gully of Lake Hańcza" educational trail—a hiking trail approximately 10 km long that leads from Stara Hańcza, with its historic manor house and park, along the eastern shore of Lake Hańcza, and then through the Czarna Hańcza River valley to Turtul. The trail features shelters, campfire areas, and educational information boards.
