Amateurs of hikes that are interested in history should know about more than 100-kilometre blue “Partyzantów AK” [“Home Army Partisans”] trail. In accordance to the name, it is dedicated to the armed combat that took place between soldiers of Armia Krajowa [Home Army] and Hitlerian invaders.

The trail starts in Czersk Świecki village and ends in Szlachta village, leading across the terrains of wild nature, mainly forests.

Yellow trail

A 68-kilometre yellow “Kasztelański” trail starts its course on a forest area of Bory Tucholskie, nearby Rytel village – it is here where the gale from summer 2017 created the biggest havoc. Today, we can still see many broken like matches trees – it is a frightening but also a fascinating lesson of humility towards forces of nature.

We will also cross interesting landscapes of Pojezierze Krajeńskie [Krajeńskie Lake District], that is so called “Kosznajderia” populated in Middle Ages by German people of Roman Catholic faith that descend from Dolna Saksonia [Lower Saxony]. The name of the trail has its genesis in castellan castle town in Raciąż, which is one of the points of the trail. In the area of Ludwichowo village, it is also worth to see six reinforced concrete bunkers that are the remains of the line of Polish defence circumvallation from the beginnings of World War Two.

A patron of a yellow trail, that is 35 kilometres long, is on the other hand Bartłomiej Nowodworski (around 1552-1624), knight of Malta, a courtier of Polish kings – Stefan Batory and Zygmunt III Waza, and was connected with an area of Bory Tucholskie. From Tuchole area, the trail leads to the south on the western bank of Brda, then on the terrain of Tucholski Park Krajobrazowy it turns to the east, to then lead us to glacial lakes (Gwiazda, Drzycimskie, Maiły, Wielkie Jezioro Cekcyńskie) before the Cekcyn village that ends the trail.

Green trail

Dedicated to Dr Kazimierz Karasiewicz is a 20-kilometre green trail, on the terrain of Tucholski Park Krajobrazowy that leads through villages: Woziwoda, Gołąbek and Rudzki Most. It is a trail of a strolling and educational character that can be visited by tourists of all ages. The patron of the trail was a doctor and a community activist, a sightseeing and ethnography enthusiast of Bory Tucholskie, who devoted most of his life in the 19th and early 20th century to describe these areas. The hike following the steps of Dr Karasiewicz helps to learn about the nature-landscape assets of Dolina Rzeki Brdy nature reserve.
