Dubiecko – Wola Rzeplińska – DubieckoStart
- 1Dubiecko0 kmDubiecko
The starting point will be the Kresowy House of Art. It is a relatively young building of the Greek Catholic church, erected in 1927 in a place where temples had previously been built. It shared the fate of similar ones – taken away from the Uniates, it was abandoned and only since 2004, after renovation, has it been used as a cultural centre, respecting its sacred nature and past. The building features Byzantine architecture – it is built on the plan of a cross, with a distinctive onion dome over the transept, set on a drum of large diameter. The facade is adorned with half-columns and a semicircular arch crowned with a cross. The interior of the Kresowy Art Museum lacks religious elements. Head south on Słowackiego Street. From this road, you have a good view of the San Valley at the point of its breakthrough. You will reach the village of Wybrzeże and turn left there, behind the pedestrian footbridge thrown over the river. You will pass an old Neo-Gothic granary and reach Winny-Podbukowina. The forest on the right is the Broduszurki Nature Reserve, protecting peat bog areas and numerous plant species. Having reached the end of this road, turn right and then again right onto the regional road no. 884. Opposite is the historic wooden church of St. Catherine – two-part with a shingle facade, and a refined two-storey bell tower facade. Stick to road no. 884 for the next 3.2 km, to the signpost for Drohobyczka. You will cross a bridge over a small stream and travel through the suburbs of Dubiecko to the north. The next village, hidden behind sparse groves, is indeed Drohobyczka. Using the road winding in the valley, you will continue generally northwards. It is worth stopping for a moment at the Drohobyczanka spring in the middle of the forest to enjoy the tranquility. At the end of the road, turn right, making a gentle climb.

Having reached the fences of Wola Rzeplińska, turn right and stick to the right at the next two junctions. Drive along the edge of the forest, sometimes delving into it, until you reach a parking area for loggers. The road curves to the left there. Follow it and then stick to the right. You will pass the southwestern edge of the village Hucisko Nienadowskie. At the end of the road, turn right. Ahead of you are a few calm kilometres spent among sparse buildings and between groves. This way, you will reach Nienadowa. You will pass a church and a school, then another church and another educational institution. At the lights near the brick chapel, continue straight. Pass the school complex, and by the Mycielski's mansion, you will curve to the left. The mansion is a structure from 1810, built in the style of a classic Polish manor, with a pronounced portico supported on 4 Doric columns, with a marked architrave and pediment. Continuing on the asphalt road, you will approach the San riverbed. Cross the bridge and make a sharp right after it. The next 4 km will be covered along the edge of the forest, having an excellent panorama of Dubiecko and the San valley to your right. At the end of this road, you will cross a footbridge over the river and turn right in Wybrzeże. Following the straight road, you will return to the starting point.
