A small tourist shelter with a table and benches is located at the entrance to Narew National Park, from the direction of Łapy-Szołajdy. Next to the shelter is a makeshift beach volleyball court and a relatively well-maintained picnic area, and by the road, there's a grassy parking lot for a few cars. A dirt road leads from the shelter to the observation tower and then to the very bank of the Narew River.

"Kominowe Bajoro," on which the beach in Choroszcz is located, is actually a small reservoir next to the Horodnianka River, with artificial sand and a recreational area nearby. There are a few benches, a few nice loungers, two shelters, and a bonfire area; in high season, and especially on weekends, it's quite crowded.

The fortified settlement in Suraż is a remnant of one of the oldest settlements in Podlasie, picturesquely situated on the Narew River. Built in the 9th century, it served as an important defensive and administrative center, and today you can see clearly outlined earthen ramparts and moats. The place is interesting for cyclists looking for peaceful routes with views of the Narew Valley, and a short walk around the settlement allows you to feel the atmosphere of old times.
