The hejnał is a distinctive marker of the time during your stay: it is played daily at 12:06 p.m. from the tower of the Church of St. Michael the Archangel in Zblewo. If you take the time into account in your daily schedule, you can listen out for the signal. Relics of St. Adalbert are kept in the same church. Thus, a daily sound and religious tradition come together at the church.

The boulder known as Skamieniała Owczarka is also associated with a local story. According to the legend, it is the petrified wife of a shepherd, who turned to stone after her husband cursed her. The boulder lies northwest of the centre of Zblewo and is on private property. The legend offers a glimpse into local storytelling traditions; bear in mind that the site is on private land and do not assume public access.

The signposted route to the Dendrological Garden is one option for walking and cycling trips: it connects Zblewo and Wirty. A detailed route description also gives a 17 km route to the garden. It goes via Borzechowo, Wirty, Radziejewo, Białachowo, Zblewo and Twardy Dół, returning to Borzechowo. The distance and the places named can help you factor the route into your day’s plans; no travel time is specified.

A 24 km cycling route along the Napoleonic Military Route is also associated with Zblewo, as well as the sections to Twardy Dół, Miradowo and Starogard Gdański. If you are planning a cycling trip, you can consider this information alongside the signposted route to the Dendrological Garden. The two descriptions give different distances and places. This lets you plan around the routes described without assuming a particular level of difficulty or journey time.

A prior telephone reservation is required to visit the PRL Museum exhibition. If the museum is among your travel interests, take this step into account before your visit. Unlike the routes described, which are suitable for walking and cycling trips, a reservation is the specific requirement for viewing the exhibition.

The orchestra parade is listed for Zblewo in June.
