Slawa offers several distinct starting points for planning a trip: a small landscape park, a named riding trail, an obelisk commemorating historical events, and public transport routes with stops in the village. You can plan your stay around whether you are primarily interested in the green space, the riding loop or travelling by bus. The historical references also lead to two different places: the obelisk is in Slawa, while the so-called “Bitwa o krowę” is associated with nearby Łęgi.
Landscape Park and Riding Trail
The small landscape park in Slawa dates from the second half of the 19th century and covers 3.68 hectares, including the church grounds. The area given refers to the site together with the church grounds; the size should therefore be understood as the total area, including these grounds. The date and area complement each other: the period in which it was created places the park in its historical context, while the figure in hectares gives a specific measure of its size. If you are interested in historic landscaped grounds, both details provide factual points of reference when choosing your destination.
The riding trail “Pętla wzdłuż doliny rzeki Regi” is a 10.6 km loop from Sława via Kluczkówko to Cieszeniewo. Its classification as a riding trail, its loop format and the stated sequence of places provide different details for planning. If you are looking for a riding-related focus for your trip, you can consider this route separately from the park. This gives you two distinct options: a historic green space with a stated area and date of origin, or a riding route with a specific length and named course.
Commemorative References in Different Places
The obelisk in Slawa commemorates the defeat of the “Kotła Świdwińskiego” and the liberation of the village of Sława in 1945. The monument thus commemorates two events. Its precise location is also important for understanding the history: the monument stands in Slawa.
A different event is associated with nearby Łęgi. The so-called “Bitwa o krowę” took place there in 1469 between townspeople from Świdwin and Białogard. The event of 1469 therefore belongs to Łęgi, not Slawa. The two references can be clearly distinguished for orientation: the obelisk commemorations in Slawa and the event involving townspeople from Świdwin and Białogard in Łęgi.
Another place-related fact tied to a specific year is Slawa’s second-place finish in the “Najpiękniejsza wieś gminy Świdwin” competition in 1998. This result adds an award to the commemorative references, but does not itself identify an activity or place to visit.
Public Transport Routes
The Redło – Bronowo – Żołędno – Redło public transport route stops in Sława and Sława kolonia. The Połczyn-Zdrój – Świdwin – Połczyn-Zdrój route, which runs on weekends, also stops in both places. Both routes are listed in the intermunicipal transport agreement for 2026; routes and services may change. If you plan to use either route to travel there, check the current timetable before setting off. Pay particular attention to the second route’s weekend service. Both routes list the two Sława stops, while the weekend schedule is a factor when choosing your travel day.
