Uhowo: Paddling, Hiking and Triathlon

Kayaking on the Narew

The Szlak Okrężny z Uhowa is a 10-kilometer kayaking route on the Narew. The route passes through Bokiny and Łapy and ends back in Uhowo; allow several hours for the trip. Starting and returning to the same place gives the trip a clear geographical framework, while the route itself follows the Narew and passes through the places named above. This makes it an option for anyone who wants to experience Uhowo from the water and set aside time for a longer outing. Check the current conditions on the river and at the launch point before setting out.

Walking from Suraż to Uhowo

The unmarked Suraż–Uhowo educational trail is 10 kilometers long; the hike takes four hours. This offers a second option for a several-hour outing, differing clearly from the kayaking trip in how you get around. For planning purposes, the educational trail takes four hours, while the kayaking trip takes several hours. If you prefer to travel on foot, the trail is the more suitable of the two options described. Bear in mind that it is unmarked, and check the current route conditions before setting out.

The Narwiański Triathlon Bagienny

The start and finish of the Narwiański Triathlon Bagienny are at the Tereny Rekreacyjne nad rzeką Narew in Uhowo. The Narwiański Triathlon Bagienny comprises 15 kilometers of cycling, four kilometers of kayaking and six kilometers of running. The three distances make clear that the competition combines several types of activity; they can help you consider the event as the main focus of a trip and distinguish it from the two individual outings. For a specific trip, ask the organizer about the next edition and the format in effect at that time.

Choosing Uhowo as a destination

The three activities offer different points of reference when choosing a destination: the paddling route starts and ends in Uhowo, the educational trail runs from Suraż to Uhowo, and the triathlon starts and finishes in Uhowo. If you are looking for accommodation, you can use these activities as a guide to the kind of stay you would like to plan. For a hike or kayaking trip, the first considerations are which route interests you and how much time you want to set aside; for the triathlon, the event date and course format are the main considerations. You can look for a hotel in Uhowo to suit your destination without combining the different activities into a single trip.
