The track goes through the typical forest sections and takes us to the sanctuary in Matemblewo, water mill in Oliwa (opened for visitors from 2019), Gdansk ZOO and the viewing platform at Pachołek hill.

Craft Beer Trail

Craft beer, regional beer sometimes tastes different than regular craft beer. It is named differently, usually produced in small, microbreweries but already got a big number of fans.

Thanks to well-developed distribution nets  and many places where You can buy the craft beer, there are more interesting and extraordinary tastes of this popular golden drink and places where We had only one kind of beer are almost gone. This beer revolution, as We may call it reached the Tricity as well. On the map of the three cities there are more and more places with a big variety of beer kinds and in many We can try those made at the place.

Thanks to Gdansk Tourist Organisation (GOT)which founded the first in the Tricity Craft Beer Trail, We have a rare opportunity to visit Gdansk, Sopot and Gdynia from different perspective.  Along with trying different beer kinds, people following that trail will be given a guide book with information about the breweries and interesting curiosities about the beer making.
