Sztumskie Pole is located in the Gmina Sztum, in Powiat sztumski, in the Pomeranian Voivodeship of Poland. Local activities and transport links provide practical guidance when choosing a holiday apartment: cycling and hiking routes, a landscape shaped by forests and water, and seasonal horse-riding training, along with connections to Sztum and Zajezierze. This lets you choose a location that suits your interests while also checking how the timetable fits your travel dates.
Cycling and hiking
The international Euro Route R-1 cycling route passes through Sztumskie Pole. The marked Szlak Zamków Powiśla cycling route also runs through the village; it is 95 kilometres long. The blue-marked “Nadwiślański” hiking trail is 76 kilometres long and also passes through Sztumskie Pole. The route types help with the basic choice between cycling and hiking: the two cycling routes mentioned are distinct from the blue-marked hiking trail. The distances indicate the length of each route, but not walking or cycling times. Sztumskie Pole also has combined footpaths and cycle paths, as well as routes suitable for equestrian tourism. This allows you to plan your trip around your preferred activity without treating the different types of route as interchangeable.
Lake, canal and landscape
Lake Białe is located in Sztumskie Pole and is a forest lake with no outflow. The Biały Canal runs through the village; forests and meadows surround Sztumskie Pole. These features give the area a distinctive landscape focus alongside its specific routes.
Seasonal horse riding and archaeological history
Stajnia Iskra offers seasonal training programmes in spring and autumn. Riders with their own horses and spectators are welcome to attend the training programme. Sztumskie Pole also has routes suitable for equestrian tourism. If you are travelling for the training, check the specific dates before booking.
Another perspective on history begins at the Sztumskie Pole 2 archaeological site, identified as AZP 21-47/9. It is a settlement and cemetery of the Pomeranian culture dating from the 7th to the 6th century BC. For those interested in cultural history, this early period adds a distinct historical point of interest to the choice of routes and nature-related activities.
Getting here and choosing accommodation
Public transport line No. 5 connects Sztum, Zajezierze and Sztumskie Pole. Sztumskie Pole is also located on voivodeship road No. 603. If you plan to use the line to travel here or get around during the day, check the timetable for your specific travel dates. You can factor these connections into your choice of holiday apartment and your plans for your stay.
Stuhm as a wider travel destination
In the wider travel destination of Stuhm, a lit footpath and cycle path, around five kilometres long, runs around Jezioro Sztumskie. There is a supervised bathing area at the lake during the summer season. If swimming is a deciding factor in choosing when to travel, check the current operating details for this seasonal facility. Stuhm is also home to Sztum Castle, a Teutonic castle dating from the 14th century and the former summer residence of the Grand Master of the Teutonic Order. Today it houses a branch of the Muzeum Zamkowe w Malborku. The circular route and bathing area offer a seasonal focus, while the castle adds a distinct cultural and historical dimension.
