Velo Czorsztyn - cycling route around Lake Czorsztyńskie

A tour on one of the most beautiful Polish bike trails: the route around Lake Czorsztyn (Velo Czorsztyn)

Velo Czorsztyn is a route that was established in 2019 on Lake Czorsztyn in the Lesser Poland region. A trip that offers good quality pavement and interesting attractions in its immediate vicinity awaits bicycle tourists. The length of this route is 44 kilometers, but shorter variants are also possible It takes between 3 and 6 hours to ride the entire route, depending on our fitness, plans for mileage and whether we are riding with children.

Velo Czorsztyn consists of two bicycle routes:

• on the northern shores of Lake Czorsztyńskie - the Path Around Lake Czorsztyńskie
• on the southern shores of Lake Czorsztyn - Velo Dunajec

The entire length of Velo Czorsztyn is asphalt, which leads mostly close to the lake shore. We travel on exempted bicycle paths or internal roads. There are occasional public roads, but quiet ones.

Most of Velo Czorsztyn is a pleasant ride on flat terrain. There is one section that may test your fitness a bit: the section from Dębno to Niedzica is more challenging. The steepest section is around the village of Falsztyn - it's a few hundred meters of more difficult road. The mostly flat terrain encourages almost anyone to try their hand at this route.
