A village with an early history
Raduń is the oldest village in the Dziemiany municipality. The first recorded mentions of Raduń date back to 1209. These two facts answer different questions: 1209 provides an early written reference point, while its designation as the oldest village describes Raduń’s place within the municipality. A valuable rural settlement pattern has been preserved in Raduń, partly within the buffer zone of Wdzydzki Landscape Park. This brings together the village’s early history and a visible trace of its rural settlement pattern. This gives you both a historical and a landscape-and-cultural reference point for understanding the destination.
Lakes and landscape features
The three lakes located in Raduń are called Raduń, Mosino and Brzeżno; they border Lake Wdzydze. This relationship is important for orientation: the three named lakes are in the village and border Lake Wdzydze, which is a distinct landscape feature. This lets you distinguish the lakes in Raduń from the lake they border. The lakes help you find your bearings in the village; beech forest, wet meadows and peat bogs are among the natural features associated with the cycling route. These offer two different perspectives for planning your trip: bodies of water in Raduń and landscape features along the route.
Finding your way on Cycling Route B
On the 37 km Cycling Route B, Raduń follows the Trzebuń section; along the route, the village lies between Trzebuń and Jastrzębie. After entering Raduń, the route turns east towards the Głuchy Bór forestry station. The distance and sequence of places offer different ways to orient yourself: the 37 kilometres describe the length of the route, while Trzebuń and Jastrzębie place Raduń along its course. This lets you consider the route’s length and the village’s position separately when planning your cycling stage.
Near the route is the planned area natural monument “Buczyna w leśniczówce Głuchy Bór,” with a beech stand around 150 years old. From the forestry station, the route continues to the planned “Lipno i Lipionko” nature reserve. It includes two overgrown lakes as well as adjoining peat bogs and wet meadows. These landscape features offer contrasting highlights: an approximately 150-year-old beech stand on the one hand, and a combination of lakes, peat bogs and wet meadows on the other. This also lets you describe the route in terms of its forest and wetland landscapes.
