Nordic Walking on Three Circular Routes

The “Jedlińsk” Nordic Walking Park has three circular routes: a 4.7-kilometre green route, a 10.9-kilometre red route and a 15-kilometre black route. Their lengths make it easy to compare the scope of the three options. If you are planning together, the distance you prefer can be a practical starting point for choosing a route.

The routes follow footpaths, paved and unpaved roads, and forest trails. Along the way, you will find signs with exercise suggestions for independent use, as well as pulse-measuring points. Along with their lengths, the different types of paths and these route features are among the park’s defining characteristics.

The circular routes start on the grounds of the Ośrodek Sportu i Rekreacji in Jedlińsk. The centre is at ul. Warszawska 1, on the E7 provincial road between Radom and Warsaw, and 10 kilometres from Radom. These details pinpoint the starting point and help you get your bearings in the area.

Church Art, a Museum and Local Traditions

The parish church of Saints Peter and Andrew dates from the 18th century. It is Baroque in style and east-facing. The gable above its façade features Bishop Załuski’s Junosza coat of arms. The church is also adorned with polychrome decoration and paintings by T. Kuntze. The architecture, paintings and coat of arms each lend the church a distinctive cultural and historical character.

The church bell tower houses a bell donated by Scottish settlers of the Calvinist faith. The Muzeum Ziemi Jedlińskiej, founded in 1996, offers another local point of reference for the area’s history. In planning your visit, you can explore different aspects of the local cultural heritage: the church’s design and artistic details, the story of the bell and the museum.

Local traditions also mark a recurring date in the annual calendar. The Ścięcie Śmierci event takes place in Jedlińsk every year on Kusy Wtorek, the last day of the Carnival season. If the event is a deciding factor in your trip, check the dates for the year you plan to visit.

The Radomka and Its Surroundings

The area around Jedlińsk is particularly picturesque and known for its diverse plant and animal life. Numerous fishponds are nearby. These landscape features add the surrounding area’s appeal to the town’s connection with the Radomka.

The Jedlińsk–Goryń route is a designated one-day kayaking trip on the Radomka. This gives you different kinds of routes to consider: the Nordic Walking Park’s three circular trails and a specifically named kayaking route. Comparing them can help you first decide how you would like to spend your time in Jedlińsk.

Plan Your Stay Around Your Interests

When choosing a holiday apartment or house, you can use the topics described here as a guide: the different route lengths, church art and local history, the annual traditional event or the surroundings of the Radomka. Consider which of these themes you would like to shape your trip. That way, your search for somewhere suitable to stay starts with the experience you want, rather than a generic idea of what a stay in Jedlińsk should offer.
