Masuria is a gently rolling region in north-eastern Poland encompassing the historic areas of Warmia in the west and Masuria in the east. Together they form one of the most beautiful parts of the Baltic lakeland, a glacial landscape with more than 3,000 lakes.
Warmia and Masuria are a paradise for nature lovers and active travellers. The region offers outstanding conditions for sailing, fishing, horse riding, cycling, canoeing and wildlife observation.
Its appeal extends beyond the landscape. A rich and complex history is reflected in impressive monuments including Baroque and historic palaces, former aristocratic estates and the Elbląg Canal, an exceptional feat of nineteenth-century engineering.
Numerous Gothic castles of the Teutonic Order also recall the region's eventful medieval past. These treasures await visitors in Poland's enchanting "Land of a Thousand Lakes".
