    The castle ruins in Olsztyn are a picturesque place with a rich history, perfect for a short bike trip. The castle, which is part of the Trail of the Eagles' Nests, remembers the times of Casimir the Great and stormy sieges. Today, you can admire the remains of the walls, the cylindrical and square towers, as well as the foundations of old buildings. The area around the castle offers interesting bike routes in the Kraków-Częstochowa Upland, and an additional attraction are archaeological discoveries, including Neanderthal finds in a cave in the lower castle.
