Golubie is a former village on the edge of the Romincka Forest. Today, it's an open-air site with ruined foundations, old fruit trees, and a dilapidated obelisk commemorating its former inhabitants. The area is crisscrossed by the embankments of a former railway that encircled the forest (a route known for the bridges in Stańczyki), which now serve as dirt roads and convenient walking and cycling paths. On-site, you'll find an information board detailing the village's history, a map, and an educational trail.

Lake Mauda is a tranquil body of water located in Masuria, near the Russian border, ideal for cyclists seeking peace and wilderness away from the usual trails. Less-traveled paved and gravel roads surround the lake – a mountain bike is ideal here. It's worth bringing plenty of water and food, as there's minimal tourist infrastructure. The lake's surroundings are primarily forests and fields, creating pleasant conditions for a leisurely ride and relaxing by the water. Mauda is a good place for a quiet break, and in summer, it's worth remembering to bring insect repellent. This is a destination for those who value nature and a lack of crowds.

The observation tower in Stańczyki is an interesting point on the Green Velo Eastern Cycling Trail. The wooden and steel structure is 20 meters high, and from the platform at a height of 15 meters you can admire the railway bridges in Stańczyki, the Błędzianka Valley and nearby lakes. The tower is accessible all year round and is located right next to an asphalt road, so you can easily get there by bike.
