"Green Velo Mazury" is a bicycle trip on the section of the Green Velo route from Elbląg to Augustów. Every day we travel on average about 74 km, ultimately covering 519 km. For greater travel comfort, luggage is transported in a technical vehicle. So all that remains is to enjoy cycling and concentrate on what is most beautiful.
We admire the wonderful nature and impressive monuments not only on the first day. We start the bicycle rally in Elbląg - one of the oldest cities in Poland. We ride along the Vistula Lagoon, visiting cities with an interesting history: Frombork, Braniewo, Lidzbark Warmiński. Most of the time we travel around the Masurian Lake District, so we swim in Masurian lakes along the way. We also pass through the Suwałki and Wigry Landscape Parks to finally reach Augustów.
Green Velo Mazury is a cycling delight!
