THE GREAT MAZURIAN LAKES DISCIRT The Mazurian lakes

THE GREAT MAZURIAN LAKES DISCIRT • The Mazurian lakes district is one of the most attractive and beautiful tourist areas in Poland. One-fifth of the whole surface area of the region is covered by lakes, which are linked by rivers and canals • The lakes are situated in widely varied countryside and their banks are full of inlets and peninsulas, islands, sometimes surrounded by forests. •

THE GREAT MAZURIAN LAKES DISCIRT • Two of the largest Polish lakes are in the Mazurian region: Sniadrwy (113, 8 km²) and Mamry (104 km²). There are several other fairly large lakes: Niegocin, Nidzkie, Talty, Beldany, Jagodne, Dejguny, and several dozen smaller ones.

THE GREAT MAZURIAN LAKES DISCIRT • Thousands of tourists come to the region every year to practice water sports and angling and those who like to spend their holidays near water. There are excellent conditions for sailing, rowing and canoeing; fishing conditions are ideal; and in winter those who enjoy ice-boating and skating will find the lakes covered with long stretches of smooth ice. Boat trips are a great attraction. These take you through the most picturesque locales and to all major towns on the banks of the lakes. In the season the larger towns and holiday resorts become crowded tourists centers. For years, Gizycko, Mikolajki, Mragowo, Ruciane-Nida, Ryn, Wegorzewo, Wilkasy and Zgon have been popular.
