The long route that leads to the sacral historical places located in the municipalities belonging to Gromnik LAG should rather be divided into 3 or 4 parts and a whole day should be devoted to each part to have enough time for calm sightseeing. What else, in case of visiting churches we often see the neighboringpalaces and penitential crosses standing by the church gates. The churches that prevail on the line date back to the Middle Ages. There are also lots of baroque buildings. The most interesting sanctuaries in this part of the route are the temples in Biedrzychów and Żeleźnik or the severe stone church in Kowalów. It is worth staying a bit longer in Wiązów where the time seems to have stopped at the cobbled marketplace.
This part of the route runs among the gentle agricultural landscapes. There are
no steep climbs or descents. However care should be taken on the short section
from Strzelin to Biedrzychów which is the famous national road No.39 and on the
next section which is the same line in Wiązów. Part III of the route of
churches can be combined with Part IV in one long loop with the length of
nearly 80 km .
