Description

Proposed route is full Polish Coast traverse from German to Russian border. The lenght is about 588km and 2000m elevation. The start point is on the border with Germany in ÅšwinoujÅ›cie. The end point is on the border with Russia near Piaski. In fact there is no one official trail described, which will covers all coast with Hel. Proposed route is using existing trekking, nordic walking and bicycle routes to achieve the goal and make repetitive track. Every kilometer was running / walking by me during first attempt using information about existing routes and GAIA maps. The route is mix of trails in the woods, sands along the beach and asphalt sections. There are many attractions like National Parks, Lighthouses, fishing ports and beautiful beaches. There are 2 places, where you have to use ferry to leave the Island Uznam and Island Sobieszewska. To left Island Sobieszewska is alternative option to use taxi to move from Åšwibno to Mikoszewo, when ferry is closed. On the way there are campings, you can look for place to sleep.
