Following the blue trail, you first ride through the overpass. The nearby plant-nurseries and forests are visible from above. You turn left at the brick roadside shrine (at 0.36 km) and enter the village of Kajetanów, leaving the forest behind on the right. After about 1 km, you pass by a wooden cross standing beneath a large lime tree (at 1.34 km). After another 200 m, on the left you pass by a yellow roadside shrine founded by Józef and Maria Bartosiewicz (it is clear that the ending “wicz” was added later on). You leave Kajetanów and enter the village of Bronowice (at 2.24 km).

Although small, this is one of the oldest villages around Puławy, located on the red trail. The first settlement dates back to the 13^th century. In the 15^th century, Bronowice became the property of the Firlej family. Important communication routes – the trade route from Kraków to Warsaw and then to the Baltic Sea, and the postal route from Lublin to Warsaw – led through the village. It also used to boast a castle. After its demolition, the remnants of its foundations were used in the construction of the palace with two wings erected in 1880, which, unfortunately, was destroyed as a result of front actions during the Second World War and was never rebuilt. Besides, after 1945 the entire village was nearly wiped out from the face of the earth, since the front line ran through Bronowice located at the Klikawka River. After the war, the palace was demolished and the retrieved building material was used for the construction of a nearby school, which features an openwork cross shot with bullets, found next to the old obelisk and transferred to the school by the Puławy Association of National Traditions.

The obelisk was erected to commemorate the events of 1792. During the war with Russia, the Polish army led by Tadeusz Kościuszko and Prince Józef Poniatowski, retreated after the Battle of Markuszów and stayed in the village of Bronowice. Kościuszko, the leader of the Insurrection, conducted the military review here. In 1917 an obelisk (recently renovated) was placed at the intersection. The inscription says, “To commemorate the 100^th anniversary of Tadeusz Kościuszko’s death, October 15, 1917.”

Also associated with the village is Ewa Szelburg-Zarembina, author of many children’s books, novelist, poet, playwright and essayist who was born in Bronowice in 1899. Her mother was a dressmaker and her father was the manor gardener. He contributed to a great degree to the establishment of the magnificent park and to maintenance of the beautiful garden. A fragment of the hornbeam alley leading to the palace survived until the present day; the massive tulip tree and the English oak growing here remind you of the former glory of this place.

Riding through Bronowice, about 1 km later, a beautiful panorama opens up ahead of you over the Puławy bridge, emerging in the distance (at 3.23 km). After another 200 m, a splendid view over the Puławy Nitric Acid Pland unfolds in front of you (at 3.5 km). A little bit further on, you pass by the Volunteer Fire Department Station in Bronowice (at 3.97 km). You ride straight on through the intersection (at 4.06 km) and reach the school, near which the above-mentioned palace was once located. You pass by a cross, dating from 1850 (at 4.22 km), and 100 m later you cross the small bridge, behind which the village of Bronowice ends.

Riding through the underpass below the overpass, you reach the other side of the ring road (at 4.71 km) and enter the village of Łęka (at 5.33 km). An even better view of the new bridge and the Puławy Plant opens up from here. After about 350 m, you reach the intersection where the blue connecting trail ends. Next to the information board with the trail map stands a 2002 roadside shrine dedicated to Our Lady of Perpetual Help, which is worth seeing.
