About this route

A simple route with a few climbs and more challenging sections, of short length, which more experienced children can conquer. Apart from its sightseeing values, this is a trail of palaces and churches, as well as markets that remind us of the past commercial history of the towns. History enthusiasts will find several war cemeteries along the way, left over from the battles of 1914-1915, including those fought during the offensive after the victorious battle for the Central Powers at Gorlice.

Practical advices

Although this route is not demanding, it is worth preparing for it properly, so that nothing surprises you at any point. Start with the most important thing, which is your helmet. A good helmet is essential for your safety. Take care also of proper lighting, both front and rear. In addition to bike lights, equip your bike with reflectors so that you are highly visible on the road.

 

What else is worth taking with you on a trip? Make sure to pack a sweatshirt or a rail jacket in your backpack, in case the weather changes. It is also a good idea to bring snacks to give you energy during the trip. Protein bars or energy mousses work well.

 

If you plan to take visit the attractions along the route, you will need to leave your bike behind in some places. To make sure it is still there after the tour, be sure to bring a bike safety device such as a U-Lock or any bicycle lock.

    The starting point of the trip is set at the city park. Head northeast on Kołłątaja Street towards the culture centre and Steinhaus roundabout. At the roundabout, take the 2nd exit onto Kościuszki Street. You will pass through the market square and enter Kazimierza Wielkiego Street. It runs across the bridge over the Jasiołka River and reaches a roundabout, where you should go straight onto Lwowska Street. Turn left from it according to the sign for Gorajowice, located at the bus stop. This road will take you to the northern outskirts of the town, to the village of Gorajowice. Pass through it straight ahead, without turning. Ahead of you is a dense forest, where you must turn at a windbreak in accordance with the direction of the asphalt road. At the next 4 junctions, keep to the right, thanks to which you will reach the palace and park complex in Bieździadka. Only the ruins of the mansion remain, but the park layout is still clearly visible. Take a closer look at the arrangement of trees to see where the main road led to the building. At the large intersection after the park, with a bus stop under a willow tree, turn sharply to the left. In the next village – Bieździedza – you will pass by the monastery of the Seraphite Sisters, a school (behind which there is a cemetery with a military section), sports facilities, and a small stone church with a Neo-Gothic tower and an abandoned but elegant mansion. The buildings seamlessly transition into the next locality: Nawsie Kołaczyckie, and further into Kołaczyce.

    In the town, you will find war cemetery no. 39 and a market square with an elegant town hall and a Neo-Gothic style church. Of interest is the preserved wooden house with a porch supported by stone columns – it is the last such building in the row, testifying to what the residential and service buildings of Galician markets once looked like. Pass through the market square and locate Powstańców Street, from which you should turn left onto Liwoczna Street. At Targowy Square, turn right onto Bohaterów Monte Cassino Street. You will pass by a stadium and through meadows, and then cross a bridge over the Wisłoka River. In Kłodawa, a village located beyond the river, go straight. You will reach Brzyska. The main attraction of the village is a 17th-century palace, remodelled in the 19th century, in Neo-Renaissance style, with a symmetrical mass and a loggia supported by arcades. The second interesting object is Neo-Gothic church from the late 19th century. At the end of the village, you will reach the Liwocz Nature Reserve.

    Observation tower on Liwocz Mountain

    About 1.5 km of the yellow trail will lead you to the observation tower on Liwocz Mountain, from which an incredible panorama unfolds. It is also the Sanctuary of the Christ's Cross and Our Lady Queen of Peace. Take a rest, enjoying the tranquillity of nature. On your return via the yellow trail, do not turn towards Brzyska, but go straight ahead at the car park. Through scattered agricultural buildings, you will reach the Millennium Cross near the viewpoint over the Wróblowa Ujazd ponds. Both places offer great panoramas of the area and are worth spending some time at. At the end of the road, make a sharp left turn, heading south, and stick to the main road. The village you are entering is Wróblowa. At all intersections, go straight ahead. To your left, you have the Wisłoka River and ponds scattered in its old riverbed. It is a good place for a stop. At the modern church in Dąbrówka-Gamrat, also continue straight ahead. About 300 metres past the church, you will find the remains of an old bridge over the Wisłoka. Using Mickiewicza Street, you will enter the northern outskirts of Jasło. Stay on this road. Cross the bridge over the Wisłoka, and looking to the left, you will see the confluence of the Jasiołka. From Mickiewicza Street, turn right onto Czackiego Street, which will lead you back to the starting point.
