Discover Zabin
Accommodation in Zabin
Żabin is especially notable for two things: hiking trails run through the village, and historical landmarks tell of different periods in its history. Those looking for a holiday destination with opportunities for hiking and cultural discoveries will find both as starting points for planning their trip. There is also a fragmentarily preserved park, which adds another facet to the village.

Hiking trails through Żabin
The blue “1 Korpusu Pancernego Wojska Polskiego” hiking trail runs from Nowe Laski via Garbowo and Żabin to Wierzchowo. So it is not just the place name that matters for orientation: Żabin lies along the route described, between Garbowo and Wierzchowo. If you are interested in this trail, you can include the village in your plans as part of a longer hiking route, without limiting your visit to a single attraction.
Another hiking trail through Żabin is the black ZP 1132s trail, formerly PI 1861s. It is 44 km long and continues to Wierzchowo Pomorskie. Its stated length helps you gauge it as a longer hiking option. Together with the blue trail, this gives Żabin different options for visitors who would like to include hiking trails in their stay. The route descriptions differ in colour, name and course; you can use these details to choose which of the described trails best suits your travel plans.
History and places of remembrance
Among the notable historical landmarks is the former Evangelical church, now used as a barn. Settlement site 11 adds an archaeological location to these landmarks. The two sites point to different aspects of the village’s history: a former church building now put to another use, and an archaeological settlement site.
The historical picture also includes two former German Evangelical cemeteries. Memorial stones commemorate the marches and battles of Polish troops during the Second World War. If you are interested in history, you can take these different themes of remembrance and commemoration into account when learning about the village. They span archaeological traces, former religious sites and the remembrance of events from the 20th century.
The historical perspective reaches further back: from 1563, Żabin, Żabinek and Będlino were listed in state documents as important official centres of Pomerania on the east–west route. This recorded role explicitly concerns the three villages named. It offers an additional historical context for planning your trip, while the church, cemeteries, settlement site and memorial stones each represent distinct subjects in present-day Żabin.
