Jedlińsk – Culture and Active Routes Along the Radomka
Accommodation in Jedlińsk
Jedlińsk offers several specific points of interest to consider when planning your trip: a Baroque parish church with historic details, the annual Ścięcie Śmierci traditional event and three Nordic Walking Park circular routes. There is also a designated one-day kayaking route and a landscape-rich surrounding area. Culture, exercise and nature offer different ways to experience the town and its immediate surroundings.
Three Routes for Active Days
The “Jedlińsk” Nordic Walking Park has three circular routes: a green one measuring 4.7 km, a red one measuring 10.9 km and a black one measuring 15 km. Their lengths offer a practical range of options for planning your distance. The starting point is on the grounds of the Ośrodek Sportu i Rekreacji in Jedlińsk. The routes run along footpaths, paved and unpaved roads, and forest paths. There are boards along the routes with exercise suggestions for you to follow on your own, as well as pulse-measuring points. The route lengths, types of paths and these features give you different things to consider when planning an active day.
Baroque Parish Church and Historic Details
The parish church of the Holy Apostles Peter and Andrew dates from the 18th century and is Baroque in style. It is oriented east, meaning it faces east. The gable of the façade features the Junosza coat of arms of Bishop Załuski. The interior includes polychrome decorations and paintings by T. Kuntze. A bell in the church tower was donated by Scottish settlers of the Calvinist faith. Its construction date and style sit alongside specific details of the façade, interior and bell tower.
Traditions and Local History
Ścięcie Śmierci is an annual event held on Kusy Wtorek, the last day of the carnival season. If you would like to plan your trip around it, check the exact date for your preferred travel year. The Muzeum Ziemi Jedlińskiej was founded in Jedlińsk in 1996. Alongside the 18th-century parish church, its foundation date provides a more recent reference point in the town’s history.
The Radomka, the Landscape and a Kayaking Route
The area around Jedlińsk is particularly picturesque and is home to a diverse range of plant and animal life. There are numerous fish ponds nearby. The Radomka is another specific water-based attraction: the Jedlińsk–Goryń route is designated as a one-day kayaking trip along the river. Unlike the circular routes on land, it runs from Jedlińsk to Goryń. Before making specific kayaking plans, check that the trip is currently available.
