Camper Route: Kobyłka → Catalpa Camp

The route leads from Kobyłka through Bydgoszcz and Toruń to Piotrków Kujawski, combining urban attractions with the landscapes and calmer character of Kujawy. Along the way, you can discover the monuments of the two largest cities in the region, Vistula river spaces, and less obvious places located away from the main routes. This is a proposal for campers who want to combine sightseeing, history, and leisurely exploration of central Poland.
