and cycling has held a high place among the favorite forms of recreation of Poles for years. It is not surprising that more and more people, when planning a holiday, pay attention to the availability of cycling routes in the area. In Poland, bicycle infrastructure is developing dynamically, but there are regions that are definitely leading in this field. So where is it worth going to actively spend time on two wheels, while admiring the beauty of landscapes?
Polish coast — not only the beach, but also the bike
Although many tourists associate seaside towns mainly with beach fishing, they are increasingly also a destination for cycling trips. The West Pomeranian Voivodeship and Pomeranian Voivodeships are among the leaders in Poland in terms of length and quality of bicycle paths. The trails leading through the seaside strip are not only technically well prepared, but they also delight in the landscape. Part of the international EuroVelo 10 route, also known as the Trail Around the Baltic Sea, runs along the Baltic Sea — a treat for both experienced cyclists and families with children.
Darłowo — cycling paradise for active people
One of the places that is gaining more and more recognition among amateurs of cycling expeditions is Darłowo. This charming seaside town not only offers access to the sea, but also a network of attractive cycling routes adapted to different levels of advancement. Cycling trails around Darłowo lead through forests, along the Wieprzy River, through coastal dunes and fields — a remarkable combination of nature, history and the sea within a single pedaling distance.
From Darłowo you can go, among others, on the route to Jaroslawiec, along the trail through Wicie, or in the direction of Darłówka and extend the trip with coastal paths. Many of them are flat and well marked, which makes them great for families with children too. An additional advantage is relatively low car traffic on local roads and a multitude of stops — ideal for a picnic, photos or a short break.

Hotel Lidia — base for cyclists
For guests who are planning a holiday in the bike saddle, Hotel Lidia in Darlowo is an excellent starting point. Located not far from the seaside promenade and bike paths, it allows you to start the tour almost as soon as you leave the room. The hotel offers bicycle rental and numerous amenities that allow you to enjoy an active holiday — regardless of the level of advancement.
After a busy day on the tour, guests can relax in the wellness area with a swimming pool, enjoy a massage or recuperate with a meal in the restaurant serving dishes inspired by local flavors. Many attractions are available for families with children, thanks to which every member of the family — from the youngest to adults — will find something for themselves. The staff will be happy to advise you on the choice of routes and provide practical tips to help you plan your next cycling adventures.

Which cities in Poland invest the most in bicycles?
Although Darłowo and its surroundings offer excellent cycling conditions, it is also worth mentioning that the most bicycle paths on a nationwide scale can be found in large cities. At the forefront are:
- Warsaw — the leader in terms of the total length of cycling trails (over 700 km).
- Gdańsk — a pioneer in cycling policy, with extensive infrastructure and cycling education.
- Wroclaw and Kraków — systematically developing networks of routes connecting the center with the periphery.
- Poznań — with more and more paths integrated with public transport.
However, it is worth noting that in these cities driving is sometimes less comfortable due to higher traffic and concrete surroundings. Therefore, more and more people choose places such as Darłowo — smaller, but more friendly and intimate, with direct access to nature and quieter routes.
Summary: Darłowo on a bike — activity and relaxation in one
Poland has a lot to offer lovers of two wheels — from mountain streamers to seaside trails. However, it is on the Baltic Sea, in towns such as Darłowo, that cycling adventure takes on a unique character.
