Swaderki lies amid extensive pine forests and the lakes Maróz, Pawlik, Po-plusz and Pluszne. The fast-flowing Marózka runs through the village; its clear water is home to trout. Forests, several lakes and a river all help orient visitors in the area.

Kayaking on the Marózka and Łyna

Kajaki Swaderki offers kayaking trips on the Marózka and Łyna in Swaderki. A kayaking route on the Marózka starts in Swaderki at Lake Pawlik. The Swaderki–Kurki route starts at the operator’s base in the village and takes about two to three hours. This approximate duration provides a concrete guide when considering how much time to set aside for a kayaking trip during your stay. Check current operating details with the provider before planning.

The offer mentions two rivers, while the specific duration applies to the Swaderki–Kurki route. This lets you associate the stated duration with this route without applying it to every kayaking trip. The route to Kurki therefore has a tangible time frame, while trips on the Marózka and Łyna make up the wider kayaking offer.

A longer route through the surrounding area

A 30.3-kilometre route runs from Maróz through Swaderki, Kucharzewo on Lake Pluszne, Orzechowo, Ząbie, Kurki, Brzeźno Łyńskie, Lipowo Kurkowskie, Bolejny and Żelazno, before returning to Maróz. Swaderki is thus part of a longer route that includes several place names and Lake Pluszne. Kucharzewo is specifically located on Lake Pluszne. This sequence of places adds another perspective on the surrounding area to the kayaking information about Swaderki.

Campsite on Lake Maróz

Near Swaderki, on Lake Maróz, is the largest campsite in the Olsztynek municipality. It stretches along two kilometres of shoreline and has several bathing areas, a sandy lakebed and wooden piers. In a shady area by the lake, there is a beach volleyball court near Bar u Szwagra. The lakeshore thus offers bathing areas and wooden piers alongside a sporting activity. Check before travelling whether the campsite is currently operating.

River trip or lakeshore

For planning your trip, you can distinguish between the two water-based options: the Swaderki–Kurki route has an approximate duration of two to three hours, while the nearby campsite offers access to Lake Maróz and its shoreline features. This lets you decide first whether you want your trip to focus more on a river kayaking trip or a stay by the lakeshore.

A historical point of interest

West of Swaderki, in the forest, lies a war cemetery dating from 1914, 1.5 kilometres from the Olsztynek–Swaderki road. This adds a historical point of interest alongside the themes of water and landscape. Its location is distinct from the kayaking launch points in the village and the campsite on Lake Maróz. The range of things to explore thus extends from the river and lake to a specific historic site in the forest.
