When driving, walking or running from the direction of Chruściele, if you turn right, you will reach Lake Ełk and the end (beginning) of the dirt promenade that leads to Ełk. After covering approximately 3 km, you will reach the castle in Ełk. However, after turning left, we will also reach the same promenade but near the Alfred Bohmer monument, from here it is approximately 2.5 km to the castle.

A weird setup: a gravel bike path along an empty road with new asphalt. Whoever prefers;)

Bridge Over the Ełk River

Highlight • Bridge

The river is not as popular as Krutynia, Rospuda or Czarna Hańcza, but it is certainly as attractive as those mentioned when it comes to kayaking trips. Kayaking routes can be divided into several sections, e.g. from Połom (then the river is called Łaźna Struga) to Stradun, but we also sail through Lake Łaśmiady. If someone doesn't like kayaking on the lake, I suggest going from Baran to Nowa Wieś Ełcka (we carry the kayak across the road) and then to Bogusz. I recommend.

On the promenade

Highlight • Trail

The promenade is a very nice place for all kinds of physical activity or to admire beautiful sunsets. Unfortunately, the section from the old city beach to the stairs next to the Selezjan sports facilities is quite narrow and is not very easy to navigate when there is heavy traffic. Additionally, the type of paving stones in this section is not conducive to cyclists or roller skaters.
