In Doktorce, two cycling routes with different connections to the village can be distinguished: the yellow Szlak rowerowy im. Jana Pawła II starts in the village, while the red Podlaski Szlak Bociani passes through and connects four national parks. There are also archaeological sites within the administrative areas of Doktorce and Lesznia, as well as others nearby. So your plans can focus on cycling routes and a historical perspective spanning several periods.
Two cycling routes with different connections to the village
The 400-kilometre red Podlaski Szlak Bociani connects four national parks. About 15 kilometres run through the municipality of Suraż, from Kowale via Suraż, Zawyki and Doktorce to Lesznia. The 400 kilometres refer to the total length of the cycling route, while the approximately 15 kilometres refer to its section within the municipality.
The 75-kilometre yellow Szlak rowerowy im. Jana Pawła II starts in Doktorce and runs via Strabla, Wyszki, Nowe Piekuty and Szepietowo to Czyżew. The sequence of places given shows the route from its starting point to its destination.
To choose your route, you can compare the two figures directly: 75 kilometres is the total length of the yellow route starting in Doktorce, while about 15 kilometres is the section of the red route within the municipality; the red route is 400 kilometres long overall. Would you like to start in Doktorce or include the village on a longer route? Check the current route and signage before setting off.
Archaeological sites and different periods
More than 30 archaeological sites lie within the administrative areas of the villages of Doktorce and Lesznia, mostly in the Narew Valley. A further 15 sites are located in the area around Doktorce. They document periods ranging from the Stone, Iron and Bronze Ages through Roman times and the Middle Ages to the modern era. The first group is associated with the administrative areas of both villages; the additional sites are located around Doktorce.
The archaeological perspective offers a different kind of comparison from the cycling routes: rather than starting points, route lengths and sequences of places, it focuses on the distribution of the sites and their place in time. If you are interested in cultural history, this topic offers a distinct perspective on Doktorce and its surroundings.
A package for children

Combine your stay with your accommodation search
