Hajka, Stausee in der Woiwodschaft Westpommern, Polen
Heykasee is a reservoir in West Pomeranian Voivodeship in northwestern Poland, covering roughly 98 hectares with calm waters. The lake features sandy and grassy banks lined with trees, reaching an average depth that supports fishing and recreational boating in a quiet setting.
The reservoir was created in recent decades to manage water levels in the region and support local fisheries. The surrounding area retained its rural character, with farms and small villages that have shaped the landscape for generations.
The name Heykasee reflects the local language and heritage of the region. The place is used mainly for leisure and relaxation by both locals and visitors, with fishing and walking forming the typical activities that shape daily life here.
The site is easily accessible by car with parking nearby and paths leading directly to the shore. Visitors should come in early morning or late afternoon when the light is best and the atmosphere quieter, and bring picnic supplies or a camera for the visit.
From April to September, motorboats are prohibited on the lake to preserve its peaceful character and protect nature. This makes Heykasee a rare spot where you hear only the gentle sounds of water and birds, never the noise of engines.
