    The Augustów Canal is a major tourist attraction. It connects several lakes, allowing for multi-day kayak trips. Please note that you must pay a fee when using the locks (and there are several along the entire length of the canal). In 2024, the following rates apply for locking a kayak or rowing boat, per kayak or rowing boat:
    -5.40 PLN between 7:00 AM and 7:00 PM
    -10.90 PLN between 7:00 PM and 7:00 AM

    The Augustowo Canal was built by Poland to avoid transporting goods through Prussia, which demanded very high taxes. The canal led north-east to Memel / Niemen and via this detour to the Baltic Sea. Prussia then reduced taxes.
    Today you could paddle on the canal via Belarus, which no one can seriously plan to do at the moment, all the way to the Baltic Sea.
