Wuksniki, Glacial lake in Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship, Poland.
Wuksniki is a glacial lake in the Warmian-Masurian region with steep banks and clear water that reaches considerable depths. The lake offers a varied shoreline and water conditions suitable for different recreational activities.
The lake received its current name in 1948 after World War II when the region underwent administrative changes and moved away from its German designation. This renaming was part of a broader shift in the area's governance following the conflict.
The surrounding area has been home to different communities over the centuries, leaving behind archaeological sites that tell stories of earlier inhabitants. Walking around the lake, you can sense the layered history of the region through these scattered cultural remains.
The lake is easily accessible by car and has a public beach with parking facilities nearby. Take National Road 528 heading toward Miłakowo and look for signs directing you to the beach area near Mysłaki.
Beneath the water lies an unusual underwater attraction that divers can explore at 13 meters depth: a submerged vintage car. This curious find has become a draw for visitors interested in unusual diving experiences.
