Wandering Cloud

Today another long distance, but almost completely flat. Lots of forests and great gravel roads in rural areas. Except for Legnica and Złotoryja, you don't pass through many towns, and the ones you do are small.



Right outside Wrocław is the beautiful Mokrzański Forest with excellent gravel roads. After

In Sławków you can see the ruins of the Castle of the Bishops of Krakow, one of the oldest brick defensive castles in southern Poland. In
