The Ryman Commune
covers an area of 146 km², with a population of about 4,200
inhabitants.
In the commune,
there are many areas of great interest to tourists. Lake Popiel is
located in the commune. This lake is surrounded by forests including
an especially lovely old-growth beech forest. The oak named
“Bogusław”, which is about 500 years old, is situated in this
area. In the summer, a camp site, bathing area and water equipment
rental facilities are open on the lake. There are numerous fishing
stands around the lake - the lake abounds in pike, eels, tench and
roach. Nearby, there is also a section of a bike trail which will be
extended in the near future.
The commune is
partly covered by woodland which is a rich source of forest fruit and
rich hunting grounds. In forests which are widely frequented by
nature lovers, there are many old-growth woods and natural landmarks.
In addition to the forests and their scenic attractions, there are
also other unusually interesting areas in the commune, such as, e.g.,
the Mołstowa River valley, the nature and landscape conservation
area in the region of Ledowo, with the highest elevation in this area
- Kobyla Góra (Mount Mare), numerous marshes and kettle lakes,
as well as meadow-rush-marsh ecosystems rich in flora and fauna.

Did you know that ...
The oldest traces of
tribal groups in the Rymań lands date from the Neolithic age (this
fact is documented by archaeological findings in the environs of
Drozdowo, Rzesznikowo or Skrzydłowo). On water banks, traces of the
campsites of nomadic hunter - gatherers have been found. At the end
of the Neolithic Age, groups of tribes engaged in crop growing and
cattle-raising appeared in this area. With time, different Neolithic
groups were transformed into tribes of the pre-Lusatian culture, from
which originated the Lusatian culture (about. 1300 B.C.) - its
origins date back to the end of the Bronze Age and the beginning of
the Iron Age. Tribes of that culture settled first along the ridges.
Settlements of the Lusatian culture are relatively well documented in
the Rymań area by traces discovered in several dozen settlement
sites in the area of Drozdowo and Drozdówko. The burial site
in the area of Jarkowo and Lusatian culture settlements in the
Dębosznica River post-glacial valley, on the Wkra River, in Starnin
and on the Mołstowa River, also date from that period.
