In this destination guide, we will make a train trip from Gdansk to Poland’s Hel peninsula.
If you find yourself in the tri-city area of Northern Poland (Gdansk, Sopot and Gdynia) that is certainly possible.
The Hel Peninsula, which is a 35 kilometres long sand bar or spit, separates the Bay of Puck from the Baltic Sea.
At its narrowest part, the peninsula is only 100 metres wide, while at its head around the town of Hel it is around 3 kilometres wide.
Besides being a fascinating geographical feature and it having a funny name, there is a lot of natural beauty to see on the Hel Peninsula, making it an ideal day trip from Gdansk or even a destination in its own right.
Although the train trip to Hel is a slow one, the lovely views of the sea and the cute little towns on the way made the time go by fast.
Hel peninsula is especially popular among Poles who arrive in droves in summer, staying at one of the many campgrounds, small hotels or holiday homes.
