What am I doing today?
An early morning start from Trstená on a dismantled railway line, now cycle path, to Nowy Targ (PL). Then a slow InterCity train across Poland, avoiding Warszawa, to Gdańsk. And maybe an evening trip to Hel as well.
Here's today's #CrossBorderRail music track
[This Train Is] Going Straight to Hell

I might make a trip to Hel today if I have time. If not at least there is the song!

This was an impeccable cycle path - smooth, good condition. Only downside: the scenery was a bit bland for large parts of it. A kind of flat high plateau...
