Regional trains are recommended for summer travel

You can comfortably reach the Baltic Sea, Bory Tucholskie and suburban bathing areas throughout the summer holidays by trains financed by the regional government. We invite you to take advantage of the summer offer of our regional passenger rail transport.

 

Air conditioning, internet, comfort and good company! Cheaper and faster than by car or even bus, with no traffic jams along the way. You can open a book. I believe that our summer rail offer is a hit! – encourages Marshal Piotr Całbecki.

 

To the lakes and forests

 

A new feature of the summer timetable is our ‘Borsuk’ train, which will run daily throughout the summer holidays from Toruń through the picturesque Bory Tucholskie and Wdecki Landscape Park to Czersk in the Pomeranian Province, stopping at stations in Tleń and Osie, among others.

 

The popular bathing area on Lake Jezuickie in Chmielniki can be reached by train from Bydgoszcz in about 17 minutes. The route is served by as many as 13 pairs of trains, all of which stop at Bydgoszcz Błonie along the way.

 

Lake Kamionkowskie is the most popular summer destination for the residents of Toruń. The journey time from Toruń to Kamionki Jezioro is 20 minutes, with up to 11 pairs of trains running, which you can board at all stations in Toruń.

 

To the seaside

 

‘Latarnik’ is our holiday train from Bydgoszcz Główna to Hel, which stops at railway stations in the Tri-City and popular resorts on the peninsula. This is also an option for travellers from Grudziądz who want to take advantage of an additional connection to Laskowice Pomorskie and change to the ‘Latarnik’ at that station.

 

From tomorrow (28 June), the seasonal weekend train ‘Rybitwa’ from Toruń to Kołobrzeg will return to the tracks, launched thanks to the cooperation of the regional governments of Kujawsko-Pomorskie, Wielkopolskie and Zachodniopomorskie voivodships. This offer is complemented by the Bydgoszcz-Kołobrzeg train, which currently runs on weekdays (Monday-Friday) throughout the year and will run daily from December.

 

Also thanks to the cooperation of our region with Greater Poland and West Pomerania, we have launched the ‘Barnim’ train between Bydgoszcz and Szczecin. This new connection, which runs daily and all year round, is already enjoying great interest and increasing passenger numbers.

 

This year, the regional government is financing regional passenger transport with PLN 240 million and owns three-quarters of the trains serving these connections.
