Adlig Kublitz: Cycling, Hiking and Churches

Adlig Kublitz (Kobylnica) is a good choice for travelers who want to include cycling, hiking and regional architectural history in their choice of destination. The routes described vary considerably in length and direction: a 30 km cycling route section leads from Ustka to Kobylnica, while another, 56 km long, starts there and leads to Bytów. There is also a black hiking trail through Kobylnica. This allows you to decide, before choosing your accommodation, whether a cycling leg, a longer hiking route or historic churches will be the focus of your stay.

Cycling and Choosing a Stage

The 30 km cycling route section leads from Ustka via Charnowo, Strzelino, Bierkowo and Słupsk to Kobylnica. The 56 km route runs from Kobylnica via Dębnica Kaszubska, Krzynia, Gałęźnia Mała and Osieki to Bytów. Kobylnica is therefore the endpoint of the first section and the starting point of the second; the route lengths differ by 26 km. Both length and direction are relevant when choosing a stage. These are two separately described sections, not a single continuous route description. Check the current signage on site.

Hiking and Landscape

The black hiking trail Szlak Doliny Wieprzy i Studnicy passes through Kobylnica. The route, approximately 71 km long, runs from Słupsk via Kobylnica, Lubuń, Kwakowo, Lulemino, Zagórki and Korzybie to Miastko. At approximately 71 km, it is longer by distance than either of the two cycling route sections; this figure is an estimate. Check the current trail markings on site as well. After passing through Kobylnica, one cycling route leads into the green, mostly forested “Dolina Słupi” Landscape Park. The park is nearby and covers 37,000 ha. This large natural area complements the specific sequences of places along the routes.

Churches in the Municipality of Kobylnica

Those wishing to include sacred architecture alongside outdoor activities will find historic churches in six named locations in the municipality of Kobylnica: Kobylnica, Kuleszewo, Sierakowo Słupskie, Kwakowo, Zębowo and Słonowice. Most of these churches can be visited along the designated Szlak Zabytków Sakralnych. In Kobylnica itself, the parish church of Najświętszego Serca Pana Jezusa is entered in the monuments register and included in the monuments list. This brings together a specifically named church building in the town and a municipality-wide overview of historic churches. Visitors wishing to focus on a single building can take the parish church as their point of reference; the sacred heritage trail covers several places in the municipality.

Canoe Launch Sites

Canoe launch sites are also among the recreational amenities described for the municipality of Kobylnica: two new facilities in Łosino and Lubuń opened in 2018. The year and the two locations add a specific canoeing option to the cycling, hiking and church highlights.
