Cycling day trip from Świnoujście to Kołobrzeg

If you’re up for a scenic Baltic ride, this route from Świnoujście to Kołobrzeg is just the ticket. You’ll cover just over 116 km, mostly on smooth tarmac and asphalt, with some varied surfaces to keep it interesting—think gravel, paving stones, and a few natural paths. This is Poland’s north coast at its best: sea breezes, pine forests, and charming little resorts.

Kicking off in Świnoujście, you’ll be right on the German border—this unique town is spread over 44 islands (don’t miss the beaches or lighthouse before you set off!). Then it’s a coastal cruise with mostly gentle ascents and descents (about 400 meters each, nothing too gnarly) until you reach Kołobrzeg.

Kołobrzeg is a proper seaside town, known for its historic pier and chilled spa vibe—perfect for a well-deserved rest. Along the way, you’ll have plenty of chances to dip your toes in the Baltic or grab an ice cream in seaside cafés. Bring a camera—the views are worth it, and so is the journey!
