Camping Field at the Tourist & Recreation Base in Wólka Nadbużna
Set among tall pines and close to the calm bends of the Bug River, the camping field at the Tourist & Recreation Base in Wólka Nadbużna is a place where classic outdoor living meets a well-organized recreation area. The mood is quietly forested — with room to breathe, an easy camping rhythm in a tent or van, and the convenience of shared facilities and activities on site.
Location and surroundings
The campsite is located in Wólka Nadbużna in the Podlaskie region, within Gmina Siemiatycze, about 5 km from the town of Siemiatycze. The surroundings support a peaceful stay: forest, the river’s natural pace, and a landscape that invites walks, cycling trips, and time close to the water.
The base has direct access to the Bug River bank, and the site description highlights the possibility to moor kayaks. This makes it a good option for travelers who want to combine camping with water-based outings — or simply enjoy mornings and evenings near the river.
Camping and accommodation
Within the complex, there is a designated tent area (pole namiotowe) as well as separate places intended for camper vans and motorhomes. It’s a practical set-up for traditional campers and vanlifers alike, especially if you want a green base with recreation available right on site.
For those who prefer sleeping under a roof, the facility also offers summer cabins (domki letniskowe) and a simple shelter-style accommodation (“schronisko”). The accommodation capacity is described as 39 bed places in total: 26 in cabins and 13 in the shelter. The cabins are described as 3-, 4-, and 5-person units with a bathroom and toilet, a kitchenette with a gas cooker, electric heating, and basic kitchen equipment.
Facilities and services
The base in Wólka Nadbużna is designed as a multi-purpose place — with shared spaces and equipment that support both relaxation and active time outdoors. Among the on-site facilities and infrastructure are:
- a rope park (park linowy) with routes of different difficulty, set within the pine forest,
- an outdoor gym (siłownia zewnętrzna) located in the rope-park area,
- a children’s playground (plac zabaw),
- recreational equipment listed in the facility description, such as eurobungee, go-karts, and an inflatable slide,
- a covered bonfire shelter (wiata ogniskowa),
- a large covered grill shelter and a brick-built grill near the shelter building,
- a common room (“świetlica”) with a fireplace, used for gatherings and events,
- a tourist information point with free folders, guides, and tourism materials, plus small souvenirs.
Camping descriptions also mention a separate sanitary building serving the camping area. If you need very specific technical details (for example, the number of camping pitches or the exact type of hook-ups), it’s best to plan your stay in a self-sufficient camping style.
Activities and experiences
The most distinctive attraction is the rope park, prepared for different age groups. The route descriptions include a low “Maluch” route for children aged 3–13 with solutions aimed at increasing safety, and a “Junior” route that is higher and more challenging, with stated minimum requirements for height and age. The rope park runs seasonally — on weekends in the broader season and daily in July and August (depending on conditions).
The Bug River nearby gives the stay a natural direction: kayaking trips, quiet breaks by the water, and outdoor time shaped by the weather. The site descriptions also mention fishing on the Bug as well as walking and cycling routes in the area.
For a slower pace, the forest setting and shared fire-and-grill spaces are a strong asset — they make it easy to end the day with family or friends without needing a tightly planned schedule.
For families and travelers with pets
It’s a solid choice for families who want to combine nature with on-site activities. The playground, recreational elements, and the rope-park route designed for younger participants make it easier to fill the day without long drives.
For travelers with dogs, the rules are clearly stated. Dogs are allowed on the grounds provided they have valid vaccinations, and they must be kept on a leash and wear a muzzle. Owners are asked to clean up after their pet and ensure it does not disturb other guests.
