Discover Sława: History, Park and Riding Trail

Sława brings together local history, a small landscape park and a clearly designated riding trail. These offer different ways to plan a trip: the obelisk commemorates events from 1945, the park is defined by its period of origin and area, and the riding trail is described as a 10.6-kilometre loop. Public transport services also stop in Sława and Sława kolonia. If you are looking for a holiday apartment, first consider whether historical connections, a riding excursion or travelling by public transport is more important for your stay.

History in Sława and the surrounding area

In Sława, an obelisk commemorates the elimination of the “Kotła Świdwińskiego” and the liberation of the village of Sława in 1945. Another historical connection is found in nearby Łęgi: in 1469, the so-called “Bitwa o krowę” took place there between residents of Świdwin and Białogard. The two points of historical interest differ in both place and time: the obelisk stands in Sława and relates to 1945, while the event of 1469 took place in Łęgi. If history plays a part in your travel decision, this distinction helps you tell apart a local memorial from a historical event in the surrounding area.

Landscape park and riding trail

The small landscape park in Sława dates from the second half of the 19th century and covers 3.68 hectares, including the church grounds. The area given therefore refers to the entire site, church grounds included. Two specific features are useful for putting it in context: its period of origin and its size. The park thus offers a small landscape area with historical context as a distinct point of interest for planning your trip.

The “Pętla wzdłuż doliny rzeki Regi” riding trail is a 10.6 km loop from Sława via Kluczkówko to Cieszeniewo. Its designation as a riding trail, its length and the stated sequence of places provide a clear framework for planning a riding excursion. Unlike the park, the focus here is not the area of a place, but a route with a specified course. When choosing a holiday apartment, you can consider whether a riding excursion or a landscape area with historical character better suits your travel interests.

Public transport services and travel days

Two public transport services with stops in Sława are listed for 2026. The Redło – Bronowo – Żołędno – Redło service stops in Sława and Sława kolonia. The Połczyn-Zdrój – Świdwin – Połczyn-Zdrój service, which runs at weekends, also stops at both places. The weekend service is a separate timing consideration that you can check against your travel dates. Both services are listed in an intermunicipal agreement for 2026; routes and services may change. Check the timetable before travelling. If public transport determines how you get there, include weekend services in your planning and in your search for a holiday apartment.

The planning considerations differ: for historical connections, place and time matter; for the riding trail, length and route; and for getting there, stops and travel days. Consider which of these aspects matters most for your stay, and use it to guide your search for a holiday apartment in Sława.
