Practical advices
A route with a moderate level of difficulty will allow you to test your fitness. Remember that the terrain has a huge impact on how many kilometres you can cover. Trails on flat roads are less strenuous than those on hills or mountain roads.
Planning a group trip? Match the route to the fitness of the weakest participant.
A helmet and light clothing made of breathable materials will be essential for safety and comfort on the route. Other than that, only put on the essentials. Heavy luggage will make your ride more difficult. Also, think about what you will carry the necessary items in. We suggest a backpack or panniers for your bike.
Be prepared for possible breakdowns on the route. It is a good idea to carry the most important tools for a quick fix, such as inner tubes or patches, a pump or a multi-tool. Make sure you have enough water and food, as well as navigation equipment.
Is it looking like a warm and sunny day? Remember sunscreen and sunglasses. If you are planning sightseeing or other activities along the route, a bike lock will also be very useful. Before you leave, carefully examine your route for the trip. Consider whether your skills and equipment are adequate for the level of difficulty of the route.

Dynów is a good starting point for this route. There is a MOR point (Biker Service Area) where you can leave your car. The start of the route runs along the San River. After about one kilometre, cross the bridge over the river and turn left.
The loop through the Pogórze Przemyskie Landscape Park follows the red cycle trail. You will need to use a map, as the marking in the field is quite poor. Ahead of you is the first ascent to the village of Pawłokoma.

You reach the bridge you crossed at the beginning of the loop. This means that you are approaching the end of your cycling trip. However, it is still worth staying in Dynów and stopping at the market square to see the characteristic small-town architecture. You can admire charming small-town houses, the statue of Władysław Jagiełło or St. Lawrence Church. It is also a good place to regenerate after a journey and taste regional dishes. From the bridge, you will reach the market square via regional road no. 835, or more precisely, Piłsudskiego Street.
