Royal Oaks Way
Szlak Dębów Królewskich
A wooden boardwalk through the Stara Białowieża forest, lined with more than twenty centuries-old oaks named after Polish kings and Lithuanian grand dukes.
The boardwalk lies in the Stara Białowieża forest, about 5 kilometers northwest of Białowieża village. It runs about 600 meters, passing more than twenty giant oaks aged roughly 400 to 500 years. Each is named after a Polish king or a Grand Duke of Lithuania, and each has an information sign. The area is not strictly protected, so you can explore it on your own. There is a small entrance fee. It is a good option for visitors without time for a guided tour who want to see giant trees of the primeval forest. You can reach it by bike or by car.
