Hiking trails of varying lengths

The black “Drawskich grodzisk wczesnośredniowiecznych” hiking trail starts and ends in Drawsko Pomorskie and is 67 kilometres long. The blue “im. I Warszawskiej Dywizji Kawalerii” hiking trail takes a different route: over 52 kilometres, it follows the Wał Pomorski fortification line, starting in Iłowiec and ending in Drawsko Pomorskie. The two trails therefore differ both in length and route. If you would like to include longer hikes in your trip, these details can help you choose.

The “Szlak Jezior Drawskich” trail around Drawsko Pomorskie leads through morainic hills and river valleys, and along a connected chain of lakes. It can also be cycled. Where access is impossible or difficult, use the suggested detours. This lets you explore the same trail on foot or by bike, depending on your interests; if you are planning to cycle, be sure to take the possible detours into account.

Another option is the black “Rzeka Brzeźnicka Węgorza – wodospady” cycling trail. It starts and ends at Drawsko Pomorskie railway station, is 39 kilometres long, and takes two to three hours. The stated duration gives you a practical guide for planning your day. The “im. Ks. Kardynała Karola Wojtyły” kayaking route is a separate option; it is 47.5 kilometres long within the municipality of Drawsko Pomorskie.

Landscape and town history

The landscape of the municipality of Drawsko Pomorskie is shaped by a system of glacial troughs with numerous lakes, rivers, and streams. Valley meadows, wooded field margins, and tree-lined avenues also contribute to its scenic value. The Drawa adds to the setting of Fryderyk Chopin City Park, which was laid out in 1875 on the right-hand bend of the river. If you would like to combine nature and culture, these landscape features and the park offer a range of inspiration for your trip.

Drawsko Pomorskie is home to the late Gothic Church of the Resurrection. Built at the turn of the 14th and 15th centuries, it has a 75-metre-high tower. Its pointed-arch side portals feature bestiary decorations. The tower and portal designs offer specific details to look out for on a cultural and historical walk.

Since 2018, the salt warehouse has housed memorabilia relating to the history of Drawsko Pomorskie. The village of Jankowo, also in the municipality, has a granary designed by Walter Gropius. Built in 1906, it is the only building from the former manor farm complex to have survived unchanged. The two places offer different historical perspectives: memorabilia documenting the town’s history in one, and a surviving building from a former manor farm complex in the other.
