Hiking in Łódź Province: the junipers of Ciosny
Łódź Province is a plain of fields and woods, with short, easy trails on the city's doorstep. Here you'll find a route with its track, elevation profile, GPX and practical information.
The numbers mark where each trail starts.
No trails match the filters: try widening them.
How to read the grades
Trails in Poland have no official difficulty scale: the PTTK waymarks, a red, blue, green, yellow or black stripe between two white ones, identify the route, not its difficulty (red usually marks the main trail). To compare them with our Italian guides, we have estimated the difficulty of each trail on the scale of the Club Alpino Italiano (Italian Alpine Club). Grades assume dry ground: rain, snow or strong heat make a route harder.
