Czerwonak

The pedestrian and cycling bridge over the Warta connects the area around Przystań AKWEN Marina Czerwonak with the Umultowo district of Poznań. It is 154 metres long and 4 metres wide. The red hiking trail runs for 35.0 kilometres from Czerwonak via Dziewicza Góra, Okoniec and Zielonka to Rejowiec and Skoki. The quest “Czerwonak - historia pewnej ulicy” offers a way to get to know the locality through its buildings, places and people.

The bridge is intended for pedestrians and cyclists and connects the marina area in Czerwonak with Umultowo. Its dimensions give the crossing a clear scale: it is 154 metres long and 4 metres wide. If you choose Czerwonak for its crossing over the Warta, you will find concrete infrastructure here for two modes of travel—not just a viewpoint or a single cultural attraction.

Additional pedestrian and cycling infrastructure was built alongside the bridge: more than 500 metres of new infrastructure, including access roads and paths, was created together with it. This helps put the bridge in context as part of a larger development. The additional length refers to all the new infrastructure, not just the bridge. When planning your trip, you can consider this crossing as a focus in its own right and distinguish it from the hiking options that extend farther afield.

The red hiking trail is the longer option, passing through several localities. Its 35.0 kilometres run from Czerwonak via Dziewicza Góra, Okoniec and Zielonka to Rejowiec and Skoki. In Czerwonak, the red hiking trail reaches the upper edge of the Warta Valley via Zielona, Poprzeczna and Źródlana streets.

The municipality of Czerwonak also has the educational route “Odkrywcy Dziewiczej Góry” on the slopes of Dziewicza Góra. It was created for children and young people and is used as an outdoor orienteering game. This makes it different from the red hiking trail in both audience and format: rather than a long connection between localities, the focus here is on a playful outdoor experience. If you are travelling with children or young people, this activity offers a distinct way to explore the surrounding area.

There was also a trip on the water in 2025: the “Spływ kajakowy Wartą” kayaking trip covered 10 kilometres from Poznań, starting at the height of the cathedral, to AKWEN Marina Czerwonak, where it ended. It is an example of an organised experience on the Warta. The trip was one of the activities in 2025; this date does not imply a regular or future schedule of events.

The quest “Czerwonak - historia pewnej ulicy” is devoted to the locality of Czerwonak and follows Gdyńska Street. Along the way, it draws attention to the stories of nearby buildings, places and people. This gives the walk a specific theme: rather than offering a general overview of the locality, it focuses on the history connected with one street and its surroundings. If you are interested in local history, you can set the quest alongside the more physically demanding options and choose a different way to explore.
