Description

The route runs through the Notecka Forest. It is one of the largest forests in Poland. The forest areas are mainly covered with pine forests. Wolves, a pond turtle and a pit viper live in the forest. There are dunes in the forest that reach a relative height of about 40 meters. The route runs, among others, through Klempicz, where the construction of the "Warta" nuclear power plant was planned in 1987–1989.
