Czerwonak between the Warta Bridge and hiking trails

Cross the Warta on foot or by bike

The foot and cycle bridge in Czerwonak is 154 metres long and 4 metres wide. It connects the area around Przystań AKWEN Marina Czerwonak with the Umultowo district of Poznań. More than 500 metres of new pedestrian and cycling infrastructure were built alongside the bridge, including access roads and paths. So, when finding your way around, it is not only the structure itself that is of interest: the information also covers the associated paths and access roads. If you choose Czerwonak as a destination for active days away, you will find a direct crossing over the river here, intended for pedestrians and cyclists.

A hiking route with a clearly stated sequence

The red hiking trail runs from Czerwonak via Dziewicza Góra, Okoniec and Zielonka to Rejowiec and Skoki. Its total length is 35.0 kilometres. This length and the sequence of places provide a clear reference point for planning your trip, but do not indicate a walking time or a specific level of difficulty. The trail reaches Czerwonak via Zielona, Poprzeczna and Źródlana streets, at the upper edge of the Warta Valley. This also identifies the part of the village where the route arrives. If the red hiking trail appeals to you, you can use these specific waypoints and the route as a guide when planning your own trip.

Stories about the village along Gdyńska Street

There is also a quest called “Czerwonak - historia pewnej ulicy”, dedicated to the village of Czerwonak and following Gdyńska Street. It focuses on the stories of the surrounding buildings, places and people. Rather than covering a long route through several places, it focuses on a single street and what it tells you about the village. This offers a different focus from the red hiking trail: here, the emphasis is on the history and people of the area. If you are also looking for cultural discoveries on your trip, this place-based experience offers a specific point of departure.

More experiences in the municipality

The educational trail “Odkrywcy Dziewiczej Góry” was created on the slopes of Dziewicza Góra in the municipality of Czerwonak for children and young people. It is used as an outdoor orienteering game. This offers an approach distinct from the red hiking trail: the focus here is on discovery and navigation through play for younger participants. For families considering different types of outings together, the distinction between the long hiking route and this educational trail, which is used as a game, can help them include activities suited to their interests in their travel plans.

Another example of an activity on the water is the “Spływ kajakowy Wartą” kayaking trip held in 2025. Its 10-kilometre route ran from Poznań, starting near the cathedral, to AKWEN Marina Czerwonak, where it ended. The trip was a specific event held in 2025, so it is not an indication of an event that takes place annually. As an example of an outing, it connects a starting point in Poznań with a finish at the marina in Czerwonak.

When looking for a holiday apartment, it is worth first deciding what you want to focus on during your stay and choosing a location based on what you would like to experience in Czerwonak.
