Material and methods The research, using the diagnostic survey method, was conducted in 2018 in communes located in the Bug River Valley, located in the Masovian Voivodeship. There were 36 owners of agritourism farms whose holdings were considered conventional or organic, or were in the transition from conventional to organic production. Results Studies have shown that tourists the most frequently chosen form of leisure activities: hiking, biking and walking, while the least often: engaging in farm work. Conclusions The factors having the greatest impact on the development of rural tourism in the Bug River Valley are natural values, peace and tranquility prevailing in the area.
