By bicycle from Hel to Jastarnia

Here’s a fun cycling route from Hel to Jastarnia—two gems on the famous Hel Peninsula! You’ll pedal about 14.5 km, mostly along beautiful cycleways hugging the coast, with the Baltic Sea never far away. Hel is well-known as a laid-back resort town with sandy beaches and a cool maritime vibe, plus a fascinating seal sanctuary if you have time before you start.

The ride itself is a mix: you’ll mostly roll over gravel and unpaved paths, so wider tires are a plus, but there are some stretches of paving stones and concrete too. Don’t worry about hills—it’s almost completely flat, so just enjoy the sea breeze and the sound of gulls overhead. Most of the route keeps you away from busy roads, making it a really relaxing coastal ride.

Jastarnia awaits you at the end with its charming fishing port and more golden beaches—perfect for a post-ride swim or fresh fish straight from the sea. If you love seaside cycling, this is a ride not to miss!
