Which cycling routes pass through Jantar?
A 14.82 km section of cycling route was created by the Stegna municipality. It starts in Mikoszewo and runs through Jantar, Jantar Leśniczówka, Junoszyno and Stegna to the boundary between the municipalities of Stegna and Sztutowo. This boundary lies near the Stutthof Museum; from there, the route continues towards Sztutowo. Jantar is therefore a place along this section, not its starting point.
