A trip to the northern part of the Wielkopolska Region is, above all, a journey through a land of forests – especially coniferous ones – lakes, rivers ideal for kayaking, and extensive meadows and valleys along the Noteć.

Did you know that the Wielkopolska Region has two historic capitals? One is, of course, Poznań, and the other, located in the south, is Kalisz.

Peace and tranquility await at the many lakes and forests […]

This time, we’re taking you on a weekend getaway southeast of Poznań, exploring the charming area around Jarocin, Środa Wielkopolska, and Krotoszyn.
