Wigry Lake, Lake in Podlaskie Voivodeship, Poland.
Wigry Lake is a large body of water in northeastern Poland with 19 islands and depths reaching 73 meters. The water is surrounded by dense forest and supports a range of non-motorized activities for visitors.
The lake first received protection in 1931 as a partial reserve to safeguard the environment. This protection expanded in 1989 when it became part of a national park.
The lake has deep roots in local fishing traditions and remains central to how residents identify themselves and maintain their connection to the water.
Motorized boats are not permitted here, making it ideal for canoeing and sailing. Visitors should check conditions before water activities and be prepared for varying water depths in different areas.
The lake is home to over 26 fish species that draw both anglers and researchers. This abundance of life in the water makes it a location where the natural richness is immediately noticeable.
