The border lock of the Augustów Canal between Poland and Belarus. A beautiful lock with a lifting bridge and tall pillars. Unfortunately, it can currently only be admired from the Polish side.

Mikaszówka is more than just a lock. The Church of St. Mary Magdalene and the adjacent park commemorating the Augustów Roundup are also worth visiting.

Kudrynki is the last lock before the border with Belarus. It's a small lock with a wooden bridge and manually operated wooden gates. Currently closed due to a breakdown, but it's always worth seeing this structure, built by Polish military engineers during the partition period.

The Paniewo Lock is the ninth lock along the 61st km of the Biebrza River and the only two-chamber lock on the Augustów Canal in Poland. The difference in elevation between Lake Paniewo and Lake Krzywe is 6.3 m.
