Discover Bachórz: Cycling Routes, Church and Narrow-Gauge Railway
Accommodation in Bachórz
Three very different discoveries come together around Bachórz: cycling routes, a historic church building and the narrow-gauge railway. This gives you several concrete starting points for planning your trip, without all the activities having the same character. The green cycling route explicitly passes through Bachórz; another route is part of the surrounding region. There is also the Neo-Romanesque church and a railway museum that combines a visit with a train ride. If you are looking for a holiday apartment, you can consider which of these highlights you would especially like to focus on during your stay.

Cycling Routes in Bachórz and the Surrounding Region
The green “Pagórki Pogórza Dynowskiego” cycling route passes through Bachórz and Laskówka and is about 17 kilometres long. It was created in 2012. Before setting out on a specific tour, check the route’s current signage and condition.
Further afield in the region, the blue “Zakolem Sanu” cycling route passes through Dąbrówka Starzeńska, Dylągowa and Pawłokoma; it is about 27 kilometres long. The two routes can be distinguished by their approximate distances. When choosing where to stay, it is also important to note that the green route passes through Bachórz, while the blue route is described as being in the wider surrounding region. This lets you weigh up whether the route that explicitly passes through Bachórz or the route located in the wider region is more important to your trip.
The Church and Railway as Cultural Discoveries
The Neo-Romanesque brick Church of St. Wojciech and the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary was built in 1871 and founded by Wanda Ostrowska. Its style, year of construction and benefactor offer specific points of interest for anyone who wants to explore architecture and history as well as routes during their trip. The building adds a different perspective on Bachórz to the cycling routes: rather than a route, the focus here is on a single building with a specific historical context.
The railway museum in Bachórz offers another way to explore the area: you can visit its vehicles and buildings and also take a ride along a nearly 100-kilometre section of the narrow-gauge railway. The visit and the ride are distinct parts of the railway experience: the train journey is part of what is on offer, alongside the vehicles and buildings. Check current availability with the operator before planning this excursion. The railway trip passes through a 602-metre-long tunnel near Szklar, described as the only tunnel in Poland’s narrow-gauge railway network.
These themes can offer different points of reference when choosing your holiday apartment: would you like to include the cycling route through Bachórz in your plans, are you particularly interested in the church building, or would you like to combine a visit with a train ride? The information about the routes, the church’s year of construction and the railway museum can help you weigh up your interests and plan your trip accordingly.
