Great, shaded road with almost zero car traffic.

Better to use the sidewalk if you are not in a hurry, because the road is narrow.

The crossing is very narrow and it is impossible to pass either a pedestrian or a bicycle. Someone has to stop.

A quiet, winding road through the forest with gentle climbs, good asphalt, and at the end a beautiful descent to the left towards a hanging bridge ;-)

Bridge over the Wkra in Joniec, with a steel structure and wooden surface. The surface is smooth, you can easily ride a road bike. The views of the Wkra are wonderful, you can watch kayakers.

The first bridge over the Bzura in Kamion was built in 1915. It was a wooden structure of a temporary nature. After 9 years, the bridge was destroyed during the flood in 1924. It was rebuilt in the same year, but the ice embankments (elements protecting the bridge from flowing ice floes) were not made until the following year. The war that began in 1939 caused the destruction of five spans, which were later repaired by the Germans. Military operations in 1945 and the flowing ice floes in 1947 destroyed the bridge again, but in 1947 it was rebuilt by the State Road Bridge Reconstruction Directorate over the Vistula and Bzura near Wyszogród. In this form (during the last reconstruction it received steel girders) the bridge survived until 2010, when the flowing ice floes damaged it so much that vehicle traffic had to be significantly limited (to 3.5 tons and max. 2 m wide. The reconstruction, or rather construction from scratch, was carried out in the "Design and Build" system. It turned out to be necessary to rebuild the drainage, technical infrastructure devices and build traffic safety devices. The structure has four spans, is 160.5 m long and 9 m wide and has a load capacity that allows for the movement of vehicles weighing up to 80 tons. The contractor completed the work on October 30, 2012, while the ceremonial handover of the new bridge to the residents of Kamion and the Sochaczew district took place on January 2, 2013. The total cost of the works in Kamion amounted to PLN 14.7 million. The subsidy in the amount of PLN 6.8 million came from government funds for the removal of the effects of flooding, which was allocated by the Mazovian Voivode Jacek Kozłowski. The remaining funds in the amount of PLN 7.9 million were provided by the local government of the Mazovian Voivodeship.

Convenient station on the Warsaw - Gdańsk route. Access to the platforms by footbridge, but there are lifts that can accommodate a bicycle. KM and SKM trains to Warsaw.
