Butryny: Cycling Routes and Outdoor Experiences

Cycling routes with different profiles

The three cycling routes are easy to distinguish by their stated lengths and difficulty ratings. Route 37 is the yellow-marked, easy route, at 24 kilometres; it is flat. Route 38 is blue-marked, 27 kilometres long, of moderate difficulty and hilly. The green Route 39 is an 11-kilometre circular route, also of moderate difficulty and hilly. All three routes are marked.

The yellow-marked cycling route 37 runs via Olsztyn and Butryny to Nowa Kaletka and Zgniłocha. Its flat course and easy rating distinguish it from the other two hilly, moderately difficult routes. At 24 kilometres, it is longer than Route 39 but shorter than Route 38.

The blue cycling route 38 runs via Olsztyn, Stary Olsztyn, Linowo, Trękus, Kaborno, Nowa Wieś and Przykop to Butryny. At 27 kilometres, it is the longest of the three routes described. Its moderate difficulty rating and hilly terrain give you further points of comparison in addition to distance.

Route 39 is a green-marked circular route from Butryny via Nowa Kaletka and back to Butryny. At 11 kilometres, it is considerably shorter than Routes 37 and 38; however, it is still rated moderate, and it is also hilly. Here, then, the shorter distance alone does not mean an easier rating. For your planning, it is worth considering length, terrain and difficulty rating together.

The route shape is another difference: Route 39 is a circuit that returns to its starting point, while the descriptions of Routes 37 and 38 name the places they pass through and their respective destinations. If you prefer a circular route, this is a useful guide; for the other two routes, you can take the listed places and total distance into account.

BARTBO: Outdoor activities

The BARTBO amusement park is in Butryny and covers 18 hectares. The operator lists a high ropes course, paintball, quad biking, activity balls and Segways among its outdoor recreation options. These different types of activities offer a different focus for the day than the marked cycling routes. Specific activities and opening hours may change; check this information before your visit.

When comparing your holiday plans, it helps to distinguish between the routes and the park’s activities: for the cycling routes, you can choose based on length, difficulty rating, terrain and course. At BARTBO, your interest is more likely to be in the activities listed there. This makes it possible to consider whether you want to focus on one or the other, or include both in your travel plans.

The options described give you practical points to consider when choosing the focus of your holiday: a flat route rated easy, two hilly routes rated moderate, or activities at the amusement park.
