Lębork County, situated in the north-western part of the Pomeranian Voivodeship, covers an area of 707 km² and is home to approximately 64,000 residents. Often referred to as the "Blue Land" due to its abundance of lakes and proximity to the sea, the region is a cornerstone of Northern Poland's tourism. It comprises two main urban centers: the historic town of Lębork and the seaside resort of Łeba, famously known as the "Pearl of the Baltic," alongside the rural communes of Cewice, Nowa Wieś Lęborska, and Wicko. The county’s greatest asset is its pristine environment, serving as the gateway to the Słowiński National Park—a UNESCO World Biosphere Reserve renowned for its spectacular Moving Dunes. The region offers a perfect balance of relaxation on wide, sandy beaches and diverse active tourism opportunities. Cycling enthusiasts can explore numerous scenic paths, including the iconic 160-kilometer "Trail of the Rolled Tracks" stretching from Łeba toward Bytów and Miastko. Meanwhile, water sports fans will appreciate the modern yacht marina in Łeba, which provides comprehensive services for up to 120 vessels of various classes. The clean lakes and rivers are a paradise for anglers, and the untouched landscapes offer fantastic vistas for photographers and painters. A stay in Lębork County is further enriched by a vibrant calendar of events that seamlessly blend tradition with modern entertainment. Key highlights include the Lębork St. James Days, the Tastes of the Middle Ages, the traditional Cod Festival, and the Tomasz Hopfer International Ecological Marathon. Visitors can rely on a well-developed hospitality infrastructure tailored to every requirement. Accommodation options range from high-standard hotels and guesthouses in Łeba to charming agritourism farms in the rural communes, all renowned for their authentic Pomeranian hospitality.
