Things to do alone in Łobez: a lakeside beach at Lake Karwowo, a brick church from the 15th century and an Orthodox church in a house from 1912.
In compact Łobez, three places tagged solo fill a calm day that needs no companion. More of the town is on the page things to do in Łobez, while ideas for people travelling alone across the region sit under solo in West Pomerania.
Start in the centre with the two places of worship and spend the rest of the day by the water. The church and the Orthodox church stand in town, while Lake Karwowo lies in a beech forest just outside, so the route plans itself.
The brick Church of the Sacred Heart of Jesus in Łobez stands at Kościelna 3. It dates from the 15th century, was rebuilt after the war, and its tower is made of erratic boulders. On Wojska Polskiego street you will find the Orthodox Church of St George in Łobez, set up in a building that was put up in 1912 as an ordinary dwelling house. Its interior has an iconostasis moved from another church, which makes a strong impression in so small a building.
When you have had enough of walls, head for Lake Karwowo. It is a small lake of about 33 ha, with a bathing area, a jetty and a spot for a campfire on the eastern shore, surrounded by beech woods.
Yes. Two churches with a history and a lake in the woods need neither company nor a booking. You can see them at your own pace.
At Lake Karwowo. The shore has a bathing area, shelters, a forest car park and a tent field, and beech forest runs all around.
