The city is located in the borki, almost unspoiled land with forests of solar clearings and the dark zagajnikach with transparent Lakes, rivers and streams tinkling which are scattered around between the morainic hills. It is the ideal holiday destination for those looking for a quiet pristine, unspoiled by civilization landscapes and those who prefer active holiday on a bike, in a kayak, or on the back of a horse. All of this together creates a unique landscape and encourages you to remain here any longer.

At the heart of this land is Ełk, situated at the ełckie Lake and the river. Etymology-the first in these lands the tribe is founded on ełckiej Island 2-4. In later years, the then Commander of the Teutonic Knights-Urlich von Jungingen-supervised the work on establishing a fortified castle, whose foundations have survived to today. Is that of the Teutonic Knights Castle gave later at the city.

A tourist in ełk on the lack of attractions to complain. In the city is the municipal beach on which you can not only to bathe and sunbathe at will, but also rent water equipment and admire the picturesque shore of the city from the surface of the Lake. If you do not have to top up, we recommend a walk along the promenade, which stretches from Lake Elk. There is peace and tranquility, disturbed only by talking people. After the Lake fly birds Lasha to walkers. It's hard to believe that sites like cartoons, are just two minutes walk from the main street of the Elk. In the spring and summer here is littered with thirsty interesting views, cyclists. There is probably nothing better than riding a bicycle along the banks of lakes, through fields and forests, hills and Plains.
