A longer circular route also starts and ends in Drawsko: it is 34 km long and runs through Chełst, Kamiennik, Kwiejce, Piłka and Pęckowo. If you are comparing places along the routes, these details can help you choose between the two circular routes.

The red “Po obu stronach Noteci” cycling route is 57 km long and passes through Drawsko. The black cycling route is shorter at 9 km; it runs through Drawsko (Abisynia), via the Kaczeniec forest district to Borzysko Młyn. The distances and places named provide different points of reference for planning your route, as not all the routes follow the same course or take the same form.

Another option is the “Trójwieś” route, which links Drawsko, Drawski Młyn and Pęckowo. It is suitable for walkers, cyclists and Nordic walking. This offers a route connecting three places in addition to the circular routes listed above. When deciding, consider whether you would prefer to plan a circular trip starting from Drawsko, a longer route through the town or a trail linking several destinations.

The 14 km hiking trail starts at the “Yndzel” landing stage in Drawsko and returns there. Its course includes the former “Rajczywiec” educational and nature trail, the landscape of the Noteć Valley and a group of natural oaks. Its specific stops and length help you get a sense of the route.

The “Rajczywiec” path is described as a former educational and nature trail, so it should not be understood as a current attraction. If you are weighing different options for a stay in Drawsko, you can compare this circular walk with cycling: the hiking trail’s starting point, return point and length are specified, while each cycling route has its own course and distance.

The Drawsko waterworks complex comprises single-chamber Lock No. 21 and a chamber fish pass. The lock was built in 1898 and is an important feature of the Noteć Valley’s cultural landscape. Details of its construction and age make the complex a specific subject of cultural history, alongside the routes through the surrounding area.

Another structure is the restored palace in a manor park dating from the first half of the 18th century. Together, these places represent different aspects of local cultural history: the waterworks complex is linked to the cultural landscape of the Noteć Valley, while the palace’s restoration and historic park are part of its description. If you are considering Drawsko for its cultural history, you can include these two subjects alongside the cycling and hiking trails when weighing up your interests.
