Brodnica Lake District - Pojezierze Brodnickie

Brodnica Lake District - located in the north-eastern part of the Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship, near Brodnica. The city from which the region takes its name.

The lake district includes over 100 lakes with an area of ​​over 1 ha each. Gutter lakes predominate, many of them are connected by watercourses. The largest water reservoir is Wielkie Partęczyny (area: 324 ha). The region is relatively poorly developed for tourists. The conditions for sailing are not favorable due to the relatively small area of ​​the lakes, surrounding hills and the shoreline covered with tall forests. Internal combustion engines are forbidden in a large number of water bodies. In the most valuable natural parts of the lake district, landscape parks have been created, within which 7 nature reserves have been located. The above-mentioned features and the Skarlanka (dammed) and Drwęca rivers make this region an interesting place to practice canoeing.

The city is a tourist attraction of the region Brodnica with a characteristic triangular market square and the ruins of a huge 14th century Teutonic castle. The city used to be surrounded by a fortified wall, the remains of which have survived to modern times. A tall tower and foundations with cellars have remained from the Teutonic stronghold. Everything is open to the public.
