It is sometimes difficult to find a place for a short rest by the Masurian Lakes. This beach in Łoje is one of those places.

Another interesting historic war cemetery in the area. It is in the woods by the current parish cemetery. Interesting unusual tombstones and crosses. From the east stands a large cross that looks teoche like a monument or tomb. A noteworthy place. The next similar cemetery is to the west further along this road.

Very nice walking and cycling path around Lake Olecko Wielkie. There are several places for sunbathing and camping. Very few catering points. In places the path is a bit narrow, which makes passing each other difficult. Almost the entire length of the route we ride on a hardened dirt surface, there is little gravel and paving stones.
