The Masurian Lake District in autumn is beautiful, quiet and peaceful. I was captivated by those misty mornings and crazy blaze of colors. Additionally, the sun rises much later than in summer and you don't have to wake up in the middle of the night to shoot at sunrise. Although the mornings and evenings can be very cold and there may be frost. During our weekend in October at Giżycko I had to scrape ice off my car windows in the morning before we left.
An amazing circular bay with a small canal that connects to Lake Kisajno. I marked the location of this mysterious bay on the map. I do not know if you can sail there because the islands on Kisajno Lake are under reserve protection.
The golden colors of reeds and leaves, an almost perfect smooth surface of the lake and deep navy blue water, slight mists in the distance ... Autumn mornings in Masuria are delightful.
Windless, sunny, autumn morning in Giżycko. This is the perfect time and weather conditions for flights and drone photography.
Top-down view of a small island on the Duży Ostrów Island on Lake Kisajno. Doesn't this island look like a heart - heart in heart, to be exact?
Picturesque sunset over Lake Gołdapiwo. Gołdapiwo is located on the outskirts of the Borecka Forest, where you can meet bison - the largest wild animal in Poland.
Lake Żabinki is not very large but over 42 meters deep. It is located 20 kilometers north-east of Giżycko. A narrow isthmus connects with Lake Gołdapiwo. Both lakes are in the Protected Landscape Area of the Great Masurian Lakes Region and are included in the silence zone.
Masuria is worth visiting in the fall. There are much quieter tourist attractions this time of year. It is beautiful here when the weather is so nice. You can see more photos from this interesting place in the gallery Bridges in Stańczyki.

Autumn in Masuria is a time of peace and quiet, when nature paints the landscapes in gold and crimson. The lakes are almost empty, and you can explore the attractions without crowds. The Borecka Forest offers a chance to encounter wildlife. It's the perfect moment for a calm weekend, full of relaxation and connection with nature in its most beautiful form. Places that buzz with life in summer turn into peaceful oases in autumn, offering tranquility and serenity.More photos from the sailing capital of Poland can be seen in the gallery: Giżycko.
