Wąwóz Huzarów (Hussar Gorge)

Starting point

The route begins at the end of Niedźwiednik street. You can get there by car and park along the road. You can also take a bus 157 to Potokowa stop and walk about 10 minutes to the starting point. You can also take a PKM train to Gdańsk Niedźwiednik station, but from here you will have to walk about 20 minutes instead.

To the Gorge

The trail leads through the forest and terrain is unique for the area. The path to the gorge is elevated as it goes on the side of the Niedźwiedzia valley. At one point you will cross the valley and continue the path on the other side. Eventually you will reach to bottom of the gorge. The area around the gorge is a nature reserve. You will be informed about it by a few signs. In this area it’s forbidden to walk outside the marked paths. There are two of them, one on each side of the gorge. Pick the one on the right side. After a short climb you will reach the top of the gorge.

Back to the valley

Once you reach a crossroad, turn left. After a u-turn the path leads quite close to the Słowackiego street. The noise of the traffic is a bit distracting at this point, but soon enough you can go back to enjoy the nature. After two sharp left turns you will be on the path that leads to the Niedźwiedzia valley crossing. This time you will reach it from the other side. After the crossing turn right and enjoy the new perspective on the path you once passed on this trail already.

Going back

It’s a loop so either jump in your car or navigate to the closest bus stop or a train station as described above.
