Discover Woskrzenice Małe

The former “Wiosenny trakt” riding trail and the “Wrzos” folklore ensemble represent two distinct local connections in Woskrzenice Małe. If you are looking for a hotel for a trip here, the riding route and the ensemble’s cultural work offer two different points of interest: a historic link between a stud farm and a woodland rest area, and theatre and harvest customs.

Riding trail and former riding facility

The “Wiosenny trakt” riding trail was adapted and marked. Two ramps made it easier for people with disabilities to mount and dismount horses. When it opened on 13 June, the route ran from the “Wiosenny Wiatr” stud farm in Woskrzenice Małe to a woodland rest area adapted for people with disabilities travelling on horseback. The stud farm was located in the village and run by Elżbieta and Mariusz Kolendowie. The adaptations therefore addressed two situations: mounting and dismounting a horse, and taking a break for people with disabilities travelling on horseback. Please check current access to the route before making specific plans.

A 2015 report mentions the “Zielone Oko” rest area in the woods along the riding trail, in the vicinity of Woskrzenice Małe. Visitors could, among other things, barbecue there; there was also an enclosed rest area for horses. The report also mentions other marked riding trails in the area around the stud farm in 2015. The named “Wiosenny trakt” ran from the stud farm to the woodland rest area; the other trails were located in the area around the riding facility. If you plan to visit any of these places, please check current access in advance.

Folklore ensemble and harvest customs

The “Wrzos” folklore ensemble was founded in 1998 and is associated with the neighboring Sołectwa of Woskrzenice Duże and Woskrzenice Małe. Its members developed and performed the ritual theatre play “Wieczory przy kądzieli.” The production won first prize at the Powiatowy Przegląd Teatrów Obrzędowych in Drelów. The story of “Wrzos” thus links its ties to both neighboring Sołectwa with a specific theatrical production and its award.

For years, members of “Wrzos” have woven harvest wreaths, which are presented at the municipal harvest festival. Alongside its stage work, the wreaths and their presentation at the festival are another part of the ensemble’s cultural work. If you plan to travel for a performance or the harvest festival, please check the relevant dates in advance.

The two connections offer different points of interest: the history of the riding trail focuses on its route and the specific adaptations, while “Wrzos” centres on theatre and harvest customs. This can help you decide whether you are more interested in the route’s former design or in the cultural work of the neighboring Sołectwa.
