The Konin region is a perfect place for sailing. And all this thanks to over 30 km of the Warta-Gopło Canal, which is also the south-eastern part of the Great Loop of Greater Poland. The navigable route starts its course at the confluence of the Warta River with the lock in Morzysław (0.43 km Canal), then at the level of the lock in Pątnów (7.95 km), the canal connects with Konin lakes: Patnów, Wąsosze. Mikorzyn, Ślesin and Czarne/Black. On the lakes of the Konin region in summer there is an atmosphere of endless regatta of smaller and larger sailing boats from all over Poland. Sailing northwards at a certain moment, we can see the Czarny lake narrowing down into two channels: Gawrony (24.2 km) and Koszewo (25.8 km). After defeating the last of the four sluices of the Warta-Gopło Canal, it is only a few kilometers from us to reach Lake Gopło. In addition, the region has the largest lake in Greater Poland, Lake in Powidz (about 1200 ha), which is located in the Gniezno Lake District. It is characterized by a long, varied coastline. The lake is covered by a zone of silence, making it an ideal place for sailing and windsurfing. Every year, numerous regattas and sailing events are organized here. In addition to Lake in Powidz, Ślesin and Patnów are also very popular among sailing enthusiasts. It is on this lake (thanks to the water heated from a nearby power plant) that the only winter regatta in Poland is played, the so called Regatta Miner's day.
