Gołubie brings together plant diversity, milling culture, and routes on the water or on foot. The botanical garden is located within the Kashubian Landscape Park; the Kółko Raduńskie canoe route and the Red Kashubian Hiking Trail also pass through Gołubie. This offers travellers a choice of different ways to shape their trip: a visit to the garden, learning about the miller's craft, or spending time on a route through the landscape.

Plants from different regions at the botanical garden

The botanical garden in Gołubie covers 2.12 hectares. It currently cultivates 4,000 taxa of vascular plants from different regions of the world. Around 150 protected plant species also grow in the garden. The collection offers a distinctive focus for anyone interested in plants: it brings together cultivated vascular plants from different parts of the world and the topic of protected species. For a stay that leaves room for botanical discoveries, the garden is a specific place to visit in Gołubie. It is located within the Kashubian Landscape Park.

Milling culture at the Nasze Młynarstwo Museum

The Nasze Młynarstwo Museum is housed in an old, still-operating mill in Gołubie. Its focus is the history of the milling craft, traditions, customs, and cultural heritage. Live demonstrations, workshops, and the operation of historical machinery present these topics not just through storytelling, but also through the mill and its machinery. This gives a museum visit a clear cultural and craft focus. The museum also offers bread-making workshops for organised groups. Those who include this option in their travel plans can consider a museum visit as a group activity; the workshop is specifically intended for organised groups.

Explore by water or on foot

Kółko Raduńskie is an approximately 40 km canoe route that passes through Gołubie; completing it takes around two days. The route includes more than 25 interconnected bodies of water, almost all of which are suitable for water sports and swimming. The approximate duration makes the canoe trip a multi-day option that can be taken into account when planning a stay. Those who would rather make a hiking route the focus will find another option in the Red Kashubian Hiking Trail: it passes through Gołubie and continues to Lake Dąbrowskie. The two routes represent different types of holiday—a longer canoe trip across interconnected waters and a hiking route on foot with the lake as its destination.

Which holiday apartment suits your stay?

When looking for a holiday apartment, it helps to set a clear priority: should a single discovery or a longer excursion shape your stay? The garden covers 2.12 hectares, while the canoe route is approximately 40 km long: even the distances involved set a garden visit apart from a longer trip on the water.
