This paper presents the results of studies on small-scale water retention in beaver ponds and mill ponds located within the Polish Plain in the catchments of the Brda and Wda Rivers. Findings regarding small-scale retention in the Holocene were based on geological surveys and archival materials in the presence of beaver ponds and mill ponds. Traces of Holocene and contemporary beaver colonisation in this area have been documented. We collected data on the location of mill ponds during various developmental periods of the millers’ trade. The potential maximum retention in Holocene beaver ponds, contemporary beaver ponds and mill ponds was estimated and compared in both examined catchments at various stages of the development of the miller’s trade. It was established that retention in mill ponds at the peak of the development of the miller’s trade in the catchments of Brda and Wda was four times lower than the potential retention in beaver ponds during the pre-anthropogenic stage of the Holocene. Current small-scale retention in beaver ponds is variable and definitely smaller than natural and anthropogenic retention in the past. It did not compensate for the water loss associated with irrigation practices in this area.

Olimpiada Geograficzna upowszechnia wiedzę geograficzną wśród młodzieży szkolnej od 1974 r. Szczególną rolę w tym procesie odgrywają prace pisemne wykonywane przez uczniów w zawodach I stopnia. Na podstawie danych z wybranych edycji Olimpiady Geograficznej ustalono zainteresowanie zawodników problematyką krajobrazu kulturowego. Stwierdzono, że w zawodach XIX-XLVI uczniowie przygotowali ok. 17 tys. prac pisemnych, które zawierały stosowne charakterystyki. Wynik analizy zakresu merytorycznego wytycznych do wykonania prac I stopnia dowodzi, że sugerowany zakres charakterystyki krajobrazu wymagał opisania jego genezy, struktury, funkcji, czynników kształtujących, fizjonomii oraz organizacji przestrzennej. Za ważny fakt uznano umieszczanie w pracach różnorodnych zobrazowań graficznych oraz przykładów ukazujących różne aspekty wykorzystania krajobrazu zgodnie z ideą zrównoważonego rozwoju, jak i działalności sprzecznej z jej celami i zasadami. Olimpiada Geograficzna, popularyzując wiedzę geograficzną, odwołuje się do roli człowieka w historycznym procesie formowania i zagospodarowania krajobrazów.

The Geography Olympiad is a contest aimed at disseminating geographical knowledge among school youth since 1974. A special role in this process is assigned to works written by students during the first-level contest. Data from selected editions of the Geography Olympiad was used in order to determine the degree of the contestants’ interest in issues related to cultural landscape. In the contests numbered XIX-XLVI the students wrote about 17 thousand works containing relevant characteristics. The result of the analysis of the contents of work instructions for the first-level contest shows that the suggested scope of a landscape characteristic required a description of its origin, structure, functions, drivers, physiognomy and spatial organization. An important fact was that, students’ papers contained various graphic images and examples illustrating different aspects of using landscape in line with the concept of sustainable development, as well as examples of activities contrary to its objectives and principles. The Geography Olympiad, promoting geographical knowledge, makes reference to the role of humans in the historical process of landscape formation and development.

The Institute of Geography of Kazimierz Wielki University, founded in 1996, initially as the Chair of Geography, is the youngest geography research and didactic unit in Poland. The Institute runs two-cycle studies in two fields: Geography as well as Tourism and Recreation (bachelor’s and complementary master’s studies), and two engineering courses: Inland Waterways Revitalization and Crisis Management in the Natural Environment. After twenty years of student education, graduates of the Institute of Geography have an impact on the natural environment management on a local and national scale, by taking positions at various levels, including managerial positions in local authorities’ units, institutions connected with environmental protection as well as private enterprises. The academic research of the Institute of Geography focuses on issues related to physical geography and socio-economic geography as well as tourism and recreation. Currently, the most important topics are: the impact of human activity on fluvial systems, problems related to revitalization of waterways and riverside areas, geodiversity of selected areas in Poland, contemporary socio-economic processes in Poland and other transition countries, tourism development and economics. The scientific research and expert activities of the Institute’s employees in the indicated fields include research works both worldwide, nationwide, as well as on a local scale – the Kujavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship and the city of Bydgoszcz. The research is carried out within the framework of cooperation with Polish and foreign academic institutions, as well as in the scope of implementation works with local authorities’ units, landscape parks and private enterprises. Since 2013, the Institute of Geography has published the “Geography and Tourism” academic journal, which popularizes the results of theoretical and empirical research in the fields of geography and tourism.

Eating is an inevitable part of every journey and therefore, expanding the gastronomic offer should be a priority for the tourism industry. There are dishes popular among tourists in particular parts of Poland and they are indicated in this paper. The regions are connected with the products which added to the List of Traditional Products have an opportunity to become famous not only in the country but also to become a great export commodity. However, agrifood products are under special protection and have the potential to become unbeatable in the gastronomic offer when enlisted in the European Union system of Protected Designation of Origin, Protected Geographical Indication and Traditional Speciality Guaranteed. Also current trails in Poland are presented in the paper. On such culinary trails, a tourist can become familiar with both regional flavours and traditions as well as with local customs. There are not too many of them in our country, but new ones are constantly being established and becoming more and more popular. A questionnaire survey was carried out to evaluate the attractiveness of a regional cuisine and its importance in tourism. It consisted of questions concerning the knowledge of regional dishes and the willingness to know them. On the basis of the obtained results, it has been stated that a potential tourist is interested in getting to know new dishes. However, she or he does not know many regional dishes. There were also problems with names and locating the dishes in a particular region correctly.

Opracowanie dotyczy oceny atrakcyjności wizualnej krajobrazu fragmentu doliny Wkry oraz terenów przyległych położonych w gminie Glinojeck. Obszar leży w północno-zachodniej części woj. mazowieckiego, w północnym pasie strefy staroglacjalnej. Zagadnienie rozpatrywano przy wykorzystaniu metod: inwentaryzacji krajoznawczej oraz oceny atrakcyjności wizualnej krajobrazu P. Śleszyńskiego (1999). Wartości wskaźnika atrakcyjności wizualnej krajobrazu (AWK) wahały się od 3,80 do +3,21. Na tej podstawie wydzielono osiem klas terenów. Największy udział wykazują tereny o: przeciętnej atrakcyjności wizualnej krajobrazu – 28,4% oraz tereny mało atrakcyjne – 24,1% i tereny nieatrakcyjne – 22,5%. Udział terenów o atrakcyjności wyższej od przeciętnej wynosi 15,9%. Około 30% obiektów dziedzictwa kulturowego gminy Glinojeck znajduje się w dolinie rzeki Wkry wyróżniającej się wysokimi wartościami AWK.

The paper refers to the valuation of visual attractiveness of landscape of a section of the Wkra Valley and its surroundings located in the Gmina of Glinojeck. This area is located in the north-western part of the Mazovian Voivodeship within the northern section of the old-glacial zone. The study of the issue is based on the methods of cultural heritage and landscape inventory as well as the valuation of visual attractiveness of landscape by P. Śleszyński (1999). The values of the indicator of visual attractiveness of landscape for the study area range from –3.80 to +3.21. On this basis eight classes of areas have been delimited. The highest share is taken by the areas of medium visual attractiveness of landscape (28.4%) as well as the areas of little attractiveness (24.1%) and unattractive areas (22.5%). The areas of the attractiveness above medium level make up mere 15.9%. Almost 30% of cultural heritage of the Gmina of Glinojeck is located in the valley of the River Wkra.
