abstract: The goal of this paper was to establish the activity of dehydrogenase, phosphatase, urease and protease in three lakes: Piaseczno, Łukie and Moszne, all located in the Łęczna-Włodawa lake district. Clear differences were established in enzymatic activity in light soil (Haplic Podzol), at farmed fields in Piaseczno region and wetlands (Piaseczno, Łukie and Moszne lakes). The increased activity of researched enzymes is directly connected with greater content of organic coal and biogenic elements, also with greater sorption of wetlands. The highest enzymatic activity was established in the soil of Piaseczno Lake, the lowest in the Moszne Lake soil. The low level of enzymatic activity in the Moszne Lake soil is connected with the content of humus acides, and as a result its high acidity.
