A Guide to Poland’s Rail Network – Map, Routes and Train Tickets

PLACES & TRAVEL

If you’re planning to explore Poland by train, you might find the whole process a bit overwhelming. With multiple carriers, numerous promotions, and countless timetable pages, it’s easy to get lost. But don’t worry! I’ve gathered all the essential information you need to navigate Poland’s train network like a pro.

Navigating Poland’s Train Timetable

Let me say that train timetables in Poland, similar to most European countries, change yearly – usually in December. Throughout the year, some adjustments are announced, and due to track works, trains on specific routes may change their running times multiple times. I know it can be a bit confusing for travelers, but I’ve got your back.

Where to Check Train Timetables

I think the best place to check the train timetable in Poland is the Passenger’s Portal website, managed by PKP Polskie Linie Kolejowe. You can also find station timetables in poster form on the site.

↳ PRO TIP: Do you like traveling? Then before you buy any ticket or book an attraction, check if it's available in this worldwide Viator Database . You may save a lot of money and time. No need to thank me :)

Other websites to check train schedules and buy tickets:

rozklad.pkp.pl – PKP’s official timetable website
beta.bilkom.pl – timetable by PKP Informatyka
rozklad.sitkol.pl – an older connection search engine, popular among railway enthusiasts
koleo.pl – the most popular railway ticket sales intermediary in Poland

I am convinced that these websites provide reliable information, but it’s worth double-checking connections with transfers. Sometimes, search engines show connections with at least 5 minutes to change, but in reality it may not be enough. You can tweak the search engine settings or search for individual episodes separately.

A Word on Regional Train Schedules

The websites called bocznica.eu (a Polish copy of a Czech site), publish lists of fast and regional trains. However, I don’t recommend relying on them because of frequent changes. If you want regional train schedules, PKP Intercity provides listings of the trains it operates. Check them out at www.intercity.pl .

Handling Replacement Bus Services

Replacement bus services can be a traveler’s nightmare. Line closures can be planned or unplanned, with planned closures usually showing up when searching for connections. PKP Intercity provides relevant information on its website: www.intercity.pl . Replacement bus services from other carriers should appear in search engines as an icon or message.

Dealing with Train Delays

If you experience a train delay, regardless of the reason, notify the train manager . The second train might not always wait, and there could be problems on PKP Intercity trains.

For instance, I once traveled from Katowice to Warsaw, where I was supposed to change trains to Białystok. Due to a 50-minute delay, I missed my connection by 2 minutes. I eventually boarded the next train, but the train manager didn’t want to recognize my ticket because I had a seat reservation for the earlier train.

There was no note from the previous conductor, and my explanations about the missed connection were of no use. The train manger had to spend 15 minutes verifying everything before allowing me to stay on the train.

I believe it’s important to know that you’re entitled to compensation for delays of more than 60 minutes on long-distance trains caused by the carrier. Detailed regulations and procedures are available on the Office of Rail Transport’s website .

You can submit a complaint through a special form on the PKP Intercity website. However, be aware that responses from PKP Intercity can sometimes be disrespectful and arrogant . In such cases, it’s best to notify the Office of Rail Transport.

Know Your Rights for Compensation

Train delays longer than 60 minutes may entitle passengers to compensation, regardless of the train type. Different rules apply for compensation from EU regulation and Polish national provisions.

EU Regulation Compensation : According to the European Parliament and Council Regulation (EC) No. 1371/2007, the minimum compensation for train delays is:

25% of a single ticket price for delays between 60 and 119 minutes
50% of a single ticket price for delays of 120 minutes or more

This compensation applies to domestic long-distance trains (Express Intercity Premium, Express InterCity, InterCity, Moje Linie Kolejowe, interREGIO) and international journeys between EU countries. Urban, suburban, and regional trains in Poland are exempt. The minimum threshold for compensation is 4,00 EUR.

Polish National Provisions : Passengers of all train categories can file a complaint for train delays and seek compensation based on general provisions of the Civil Code and the Act – Transport Law. So, as you can see, here it is much worse. Why? Because compensation depends on the proven loss resulting from your train delay. Carriers may be exempt from liability if the delay was due to extraordinary events beyond their control, and you get nothing.

Passengers can file a complaint to the carrier, go to court after exhausting the complaint procedure, or submit a complaint to the Office of Rail Transport. However, good information is that compensation from EU regulation does not exclude seeking compensation based on Polish national provisions.

Railway Carriers in Poland

Now let’s talk about the companies in the railroad business. Poland has over a dozen carriers operating scheduled passenger trains. Here is a list of some of the most notable carriers:

PKP Intercity – Offers long-distance domestic and international connections, including fast trains, Intercity, EIC, and EIP. PKP Intercity trains typically stop only at major railway stations. Website: www.intercity.pl
Polregio – Once the largest regional carrier, Polregio has been losing importance due to the expansion of local government carriers. They operate REGIO, interREGIO, and commercial SuperREGIO trains. Website: www.polregio.pl
Koleje Mazowieckie – A local government carrier serving regional connections in the Mazowieckie Voivodeship. Operates seasonal commercial trains to the sea during non-pandemic times. Website: www.mazowieckie.com.pl
Koleje Dolnośląskie – A local government carrier providing regional connections in the Dolnośląskie Voivodship and some aditional connections with neighboring voivodeships. Website: www.kolejedolnoslaskie.pl
Koleje Wielkopolskie – A local government carrier serving regional connections in the Wielkopolskie Voivodeship. Website: Koleje-Wielkopolskie.com.pl
Koleje Śląskie – A local government carrier operating regional connections in the Śląskie Voivodship and select interconnections with neighboring voivodeships. Website: Kolejeslaskie.com
Łódzka Kolej Aglomeracyjna – A local government carrier serving regional connections in the Łódź Voivodeship. Also runs ŁKA Sprinter fast trains from Łódź to Warsaw. Website: lka.lodzkie.pl
Koleje Małopolskie – A local government carrier operating trains on select railway lines in the Małopolskie Voivodeship. Runs several seasonal fast trains within the region on summer weekends. Website: malopolskiekoleje.pl
Arriva RP – A carrier from the Arriva group (part of Deutsche Bahn) supporting connections in the Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship. Operates several commercial trains to the Baltic sea during the holidays. Website: arriva.pl
Szybka Kolej Miejska (SKM) – Tri-City – A carrier from the PKP group, operating passenger trains in the Tri-City agglomeration, Pomeranian Metropolitan Railway lines, and passenger trains from Gdańsk Śródmieście to Lębork. Website: www.skm.pkp.pl
Fast City Rail in Warsaw – A carrier servicing select rail connections in the Warsaw agglomeration area. Website: www.skm.warszawa.pl
Warszawska Kolej Dojazdowa – A unique cross between a train and a tram, operating on the route Warszawa Centralna WKD – Grodzisk Mazowiecki Radońska. Website: www.wkd.com.pl
SKPL Group – A carrier operating the Pleszew Miasto – Pleszew Wąskotorowy (Kowalew) connection, which was once a narrow-gauge connection but is now a standard-gauge connection. Until December 2019, it operated Rzeszów – Zagórz/Łupków trains on behalf of PKP Intercity. A few years ago, SKPL Group trains could be found on lines that are normally closed for passenger traffic during the holidays: Kętrzyn – Węgorzewo and Lipusz – Bytów. They also operate on several routes in Lower Silesia (as Koleje Dolnośląskie). Website: shortlines.pl
We can also include Leo Express in this list. This carrier operates weekend trains from Kraków to Praga.

The variety of railway carriers in Poland provides passengers with numerous options for regional and long-distance travel.

Train Categories You Will Find in Poland

Polish train timetables feature several types of trains:

Passenger Trains (REGIO)

These trains stop at all passenger stations and are predominantly operated by Przewozy Regionalne. They may be referred to as REGIO trains and are also used by other carriers. Passenger trains can be found with the following abbreviations:

R – REGIO train by Przewozy Regionalne
KM – Koleje Mazowieckie train
KMŁ – Koleje Małopolskie
KŚ train – Koleje Śląskie
KD – Koleje Dolnośląskie train
KW – Koleje Wielkopolskie train
ŁKA – train of Łódzka Kolej Aglomeracyjna
AR – train of Arriva RP

Fast trains operated by Przewozy Regionalne, primarily serving students during weekends.

TLK (Twoje Linie Kolejowe)

Fast trains operated by PKP Intercity, composed of older, non-modernized wagons. Some TLK trains feature air-conditioned cars with sockets and closed-circuit toilets.

IC (Intercity)

Fast trains operated by PKP Intercity, with modernized wagons or electric multiple units. These trains have air-conditioned first and second-class cars, often with a bar or restaurant.

EIC (Express Intercity)

Comfortable trains running between major cities, with modernized or new, air-conditioned first and second-class cars. Passengers receive a small snack, and management compartments are available on some trains.

EIP (Express Intercity Premium)

The highest and most expensive category of trains, served by ED250 vehicles, also known as „Polish Pendolino”. EIP trains have first and second-class cars, a restaurant car, and a Quiet Zone.

International night trains going to Eastern European countries, composed of older, non-modernized wagons.

EN (Euronight)

International night trains going to Western and Central European countries.

Berlin-Vienna night train traveling through Poland, operated by Austrian Railways, with air-conditioned seated cars, couchette cars, and sleeping cars.

Sleeping Cars and Couchettes

Some PKP Intercity night trains have couchette cars and sleeping cars. Couchette cars have six-person compartments, while sleeping cars have separate compartments for men and women. Bedding, mineral water, and small refreshments are provided in sleeping cars. Traveling in a sleeping car or couchette car allows for a more comfortable journey, especially for overnight trips.

Polish Railway Stations

Let me say that Polish railway stations have come a long way in the past decade. Many of them have been renovated, and I think they now look pretty good compared to other European stations. They have also become more accessible for people with disabilities, and some even have additional amenities like showers. However, there are still quite a few smaller city stations that need a facelift.

The Three Main Trends in Station Modernization

I am convinced that there are three primary approaches to modernization of Polish railway stations. The first one involves restoring historic buildings to their former glory, which includes conservation work. Examples of such stations include Bielsko-Biała Główna , Gdynia Główny , and Wrocław Główny .

The second trend is to incorporate railway stations into shopping malls . If you need some retail therapy or a quick bite, these stations have got you covered. They usually sit right next to a huge shopping mall or have one nearby. However, I believe these stations often lack a classic waiting room for travelers. A great example of this type of station is the railway station in Katowice .

The last trend, known as „system stations”, features small booths built according to a single design for the entire country. These stations are divided into two parts: one houses a ticket office and a security counter, while the other has a toilet, waiting room, possibly a retail and service point, and a vending machine with snacks.

Who Manages the Stations and What’s Changed?

Most railway stations are managed by PKP, but more and more buildings are being taken over by local governments. They have successfully modernized the stations, which now also serve as libraries, offices, and other institutions. A notable example is the renovation of Goczałkowice-Zdrój station by the local government.

More and more stations are becoming accessible to people with disabilities, with the installation of lifts and signs for the blind. Toilets at train stations are increasingly free of charge, but at some larger facilities, fees can range from PLN 2 to PLN 4. At the most important railway stations, you can find a family room equipped with a changing table and a shower.

Security guards work at most stations, from smaller ones with retired guards to larger ones with professional security companies. Taking photos at stations is generally not a problem, but some people are still unaware that the ban on photography has been lifted.

The most important stations are open 24 hours a day, but smaller ones often close in the afternoon. If you want a safe place to wait for a train at night, consider stations like Warszawa Centralna, Warszawa Zachodnia, Kraków Główny, Przemyśl Główny, Gdynia Główna, and Wrocław Główny.

Traditional luggage storage facilities are becoming scarce at most stations, replaced by luggage boxes available in various sizes. However, it’s worth mentioning that not all stations have ticket machines for every carrier, leading to long queues at ticket offices despite the „one queue system”.

Safety on Polish Trains

I published a blog post about Safety on Trains . I know you may be scared after reading this article, but things get improving. Nevertheless, you must remain vigilant against pickpocketing and gangs of thieves who target sleeping passengers. Pickpockets are active on crowded trains, while gangs typically operate on night trains.

So What Has Improved?

I am sure that safety on trains has gotten better. Selected PKP Intercity night trains are now patrolled by security companies along their entire route, whereas in the past, there were gaps in security coverage between certain stations. Additionally, more and more storage areas are monitored , making it easier for the police to track down thieves.

Unfortunately, it is impossible to eliminate all risks , so it is essential to follow basic safety rules while traveling. Always be aware of your surroundings because you never know who you might encounter.

The situation at stations has improved, but some still struggle with issues like homeless people, beggars, and individuals with mental health challenges . Be particularly cautious of pickpockets at these stations.

In night trains, thefts have been reported mainly on the following sections:

Various sections in the Śląskie Voivodeship
Section Głogów – Zielona Góra
Section Kielce – Radom
Section Tczew – Bydgoszcz

Tourist Trains in Poland

I can bet you didn’t know that, but aside from the regularly scheduled trains operated by the carriers mentioned in the article, there are also tourist trains in Poland run by Turkol and the Nowy Sącz Association of Railway Enthusiasts as part of the „Małopolskie Szlaki Turystyki Kolejowej” project.

These tourist trains typically run on railway lines closed for passenger traffic , and usually consist of a steam or diesel locomotive with retro carriages. In cooperation with local tourist organizations, the organizers develop accompanying programs for these trips.

Tourist trains follow a fixed schedule and require mandatory seat reservations . In 90% of cases, tickets must be bought well in advance through the tour operator’s website. Despite the relatively high prices, tickets sell out quickly.

Tourist trips are organized by the following entities:

TurKol organizes tourist train trips mainly in the Wielkopolskie Voivodship and neighboring regions. They also offer multi-day trips to various regions, but these are correspondingly more expensive. Website: www.turkol.pl
Małopolskie Trails of Railway Tourism is a project implemented by the Nowy Sącz Association of Railway Enthusiasts, the Railway Open Air Museum in Chabówka, and PKP Cargo. The project offers journeys in the Lesser Poland Voivodeship, mainly on the picturesque railway lines Nowy Sącz – Muszyna, Tarnów – Żabno, and Tarnów – Tuchów. From 2022 onwards, due to the construction of the Podłęże – Piekiełko line, the Nowy Sącz – Chabówka trains will no longer operate. Website: Kolejegalicyjskie.pl

Occasionally, international tourist trains catering to wealthy travelers pass through Poland, such as the Courier Classic or the Venice Simplon Orient Express.

Holiday Trains

During the holiday season, several interesting additional trains are launched to popular tourist destinations, often on railway lines where trains do not run during the off-season. These trains supplement long-distance connections from the north to the south of Poland and vice versa.

Examples include:

Koszalin – Mielno : A rail bus providing easy access to the popular seaside resort .
Chełm – Włodawa : A holiday connection that has been operating for several years. Unfortunately, the station in Włodawa is far from the city center, making it less attractive to tourists.
Białystok – Waliły : Trains on this route run from May until the end of summer. Local governments and Przewozy Regionalne promote this connection as an opportunity to go mushroom picking by train.

In addition to reactivations, there are also two connections that garnered interest but were discontinued by the SKPL Group: Kętrzyn – Węgorzewo and Bytów – Lipusz. The potential of the Koleja Nadzalewowa from Elbląg to Frombork remains untapped.

The Most Beautiful Railway Lines

Poland is home to several railway lines that can be considered among the most beautiful in Central Europe , if not beyond. Unfortunately, two of them are currently closed for passenger trains, and only special trains run on one.

Some of these stunning lines include:

Reda – Hel Railway Line : Built on a spit, this 62.8 km-long line offers breathtaking views of the Puck Bay and the sea. The most beautiful section of the line begins just after Puck. During the off-season, railbuses run on the Gdynia – Władysławowo and Gdynia – Hel lines. In the high season, additional fast trains from PKP Intercity are available. Trains can get crowded during the season, stopping at popular holiday destinations.
Kłodzko Główny – Wałbrzych Główny Railway Line : A picturesque 52 km-long line in the Lower Silesian Voivodeship. The tracks run alongside hills and rivers, and the train passes through two long tunnels – Tunel pod Sajdak and Tunel pod Mały Wołowiec, the longest tunnel in Poland . Between Jedlina-Zdrój and Wałbrzych stations, the train crosses a viaduct offering a panorama of Wałbrzych. Koleje Dolnośląskie railbuses currently operate on this route.
Tarnów – Muszyna – Leluchów Railway Line : A 145.48 km-long line running along the Poprad River for much of its route. With hills, river valleys, and the train occasionally running next to the road, this line offers stunning scenery . Some trains are served by old EN57 trains with opening windows, allowing for beautiful photos. Many interesting towns are located along the way, including Nowy Sącz and Stary Sącz, creating a unique atmosphere.
Chabówka – Nowy Sącz Railway Line : A mountain railway line in the Lesser Poland Voivodeship, running through the Beskid Wyspowy. On the roughly 77 km-long route, the train crosses 74 bridges, with the longest one spanning over 300 meters and rising over the Dunajec just before Nowy Sącz Miasto station. Despite the mountainous terrain, no tunnels were built on the route, but 206 water culverts were constructed under the tracks . Currently, special trains run on the route only a few times a year, and tickets sell out quickly. In the future, plans include renovating the line and connecting it with the planned new Podłęże – Piekiełko line.
Bóbr Valley Railway : A scenic railway line in the Lower Silesian Voivodeship, connecting Jelenia Góra and Lwówek Śląski. The most picturesque section is 33 km long, but the line actually extends to Ławszowa, totaling 77 km in length. On the Jelenia Góra – Lwówek Śląski section, the train travels through three tunnels and crosses four bridges and viaducts. Despite its landscape values, the line has deteriorated over the years, with trains’ speed dropping to 10 km/h. Trains have not operated on this line for several years, but there are talks of possibly reactivating passenger transport in the future.
Kolej Nadzalewowa : A closed railway line connecting Elbląg with Braniewo (48 km). Some sections are located along the banks of the Vistula Lagoon, with popular towns like Tolkmicko and Frombork situated along the line. Despite its potential, the line fell into disrepair, and attempts to create a trolley railway on part of the route were unsuccessful. Due to the costs, it is unlikely that the line will be renovated in the near future.
Zagórz – Krościenko Railway Line : Although passenger trains have not run on this line for years, it is said to be one of the most beautiful in Poland. Unfortunately, the opportunity to experience this line has yet to present itself.
Tarnów – Krynica – Zdrój Railway Line : This railway line runs through the picturesque landscapes of Lesser Poland and offers stunning views of the surrounding hills and valleys. The line connects Tarnów with the popular spa town of Krynica-Zdrój, making it a popular choice for those seeking relaxation and rejuvenation. Along the way, passengers can enjoy the charming atmosphere of small towns and villages, each with its unique charm.

Funicular Railways in Poland

Poland is home to four funicular railways , with three situated in the south and one in Gdynia. These unique transportation systems offer scenic views and convenient access to popular destinations.

Funicular Railway to Góra Żar : Completed in late 2003, this 1,300-meter-long funicular railway connects passengers to Góra Żar. The 5.5-minute journey provides picturesque views from both the cable car and the mountaintop, making it popular among gliding and paragliding enthusiasts. The railway can transport 1,200 passengers per hour and accommodates bicycles and ski equipment.

Check more on the website: www.pkl.pl/gora-zar/gora-zar.html

Funicular Railway to Gubałówka : Built in 1938 and modernized in 2001, this 1,307-meter-long cable car takes passengers from Zakopane to Gubałówka . The 3.5-minute journey features a passing loop at the midway point and can transport 2,000 passengers per hour.

Funicular Railway to Góra Parkowa : As Poland’s first funicular railway, this 1937 construction in Krynica-Zdrój connects the promenade with Góra Parkowa. The 642-meter route has a 148-meter elevation change and includes a passing loop. The railway carries 500 passengers per hour, with each carriage holding 50 people. The journey takes approximately 3 minutes, and the railway operates daily from 10:00 to 19:00.

Funicular Railway to Kamienna Góra : Inaugurated in 2005, this Gdynia-based funicular railway transports passengers from Plac Grunwaldzki to Kamienna Góra. The 96-meter route takes just 2 minutes to complete, providing quick access to this popular destination.

Funicular railways in Poland not only offer unique travel experiences but also grant convenient access to various attractions. Their scenic routes and historic significance make them must-see attractions for visitors and locals alike.

Poland by Train: A Comprehensive Guide

Travel poland by train.

Traveling Poland with a rental car was the first option we considered for visiting Poland. Yet, with only 7 days in the country and traveling in winter, we felt that taking the train was the best way to see the country. We anticipated that driving would be more difficult if it snowed or iced, we would have to worry about where to park and where to stop for gasoline so the train option was what worked the best for us.

Our experience traveling by train in Poland was quite great, except for some accidents or mistakes we made, and in this post we will discuss it as well as all you need to know to travel through Poland by train from north to south (or vice versa), as well as a round route if you choose.

What to know before deciding to visit poland by train, tips to travel by train around poland, how to get the tickets, when to get the tickets for your trip through poland, polish trains, our train journeys in poland.

How to read a Polish train ticket

What to do if you lose a train in Poland

The train in Poland and its rail network are quite well connected, and we can say that the country is very well adapted to traveling by train. As a result, it is one of the best ways to visit the country if you do not want to rent a vehicle, fly, or drive, because the highway system connects the country well. Not only that, but the trains in Poland are also very comfortable, the seats are very big in economy class and in some of them we got free water to drink during the trip.

From our experience, using the train in Poland was the best choice we could make. We took advantage of the train journeys, which took an average of three hours between cities on our route, to rest, eat something, or research the next destination on our route across Poland.

In order to take advantage of our trip and to not feel like we are using a lot of util hours in the train, we chose to prioritize spending the day in the city and travel the rest of the hours. Keep in mind that when traveling in winter, we only had a few hours of daylight, so we had two possibilities.

Get up early to catch the train as soon as feasible . This was what we mostly did in all the cities and is what we recommend the most.
Take the train in the late afternoon when it is already dark .We did this only once, in our day trip to Wroclaw as you can see in our post about our 7 days itinerary .

You will be more interested in one choice or another depending on your itinerary, the number of days you have to visit the nation, and the time of your trip. In our case, since it was winter, we chose to travel for the first hour and spend the day in the new city and, when it became dark we went to our hotel to rest and to catch the train the morning after. This way, in the afternoons, you may roam freely, stop for a tasty lunch, and take it easy; viewing the lit city is also strongly suggested.

In general, all major cities have a central railway station, which is generally referred to as “ Glowny ” and is the one we prefer. You know, going from Glowny to Glowny will save you a lot of time. Except in Warsaw, where it is “ Centralna .”

Purchasing tickets for your Poland by train adventure can be done on-the-spot at the station, or online, which was our chosen method due to its simplicity and the fixed nature of our itinerary. Booking online for Poland by train also presented the advantage of securing cheaper tickets when done in advance.

Given our limited 7-day stay in Poland, pre-booking was crucial to save time. However, if your schedule is more flexible, acquiring tickets at the station daily allows for spontaneity in choosing departure times to the next destination.

In the train station directly

It goes without saying that Polish are very polite people and they will try to help you as much as they can but usually they do not speak English. However, if you know exactly what you want, it will be much easier. For example, with the tickets we saw that there are also automatic machines. To avoid problems while requesting tickets at the window, have the destination station and departure time written down. Keep in mind that if you go during peak season, there may be moments (particularly on popular routes) when there are no tickets available.

On the Internet

This was the option we picked. We were able to have our itinerary clear from the start and secure the best train tickets possible. For us, besides having everything arranged from home, we also wanted to sit together since some of the train trips were quite long.

The difference in price between buying tickets online or at the station is typically 30% lower , thus we recommend that you plan your itinerary ahead of time.

Rail tickets in Poland go on sale 30 days before the train’s departure. It is at that time that you will find the greatest pricing, therefore we recommend setting an alarm for the day the tickets go on sale. The official website of Intercity Poland in English is where we recommend you to buy the tickets since it is the official website and if you have any issue you are the only one that takes responsability.

Exploring Poland by train offers a variety of experiences with different types of trains available. Primarily, we utilized Intercity Poland trains, which were modern, safe, comfortable, and punctual, encapsulating the essence of Poland by train.

Additionally, Poland hosts regional trains, a cheaper but lesser quality alternative. We experienced this firsthand on our journey from Poznan to Wroclaw when we missed our Intercity train.

For vacations centered around larger cities, the Intercity is a valuable choice. However, to explore quaint towns or if budget is a constraint, regional trains are the go-to option.

Our train itinerary through Poland

As you can read in our post “ Travel Poland in 7 days: Ultimate Guide ” we visited the main cities in Poland by train in just 7 days. We covered Warsaw, Gdansk, Poznan, Wroclaw and Krakow and, even though we had some issues because we lost a train, in general it was a very good experience.

We arrived at Warsaw by plane from Barcelona and we came back to Barcelona from Krakow. Thus, we didn’t use the train that goes from Warsaw to Krakow directly, hoeveer, if you are planning on doing a round trip keep in mind that this direct route exists and that it is very well known for being very efficient.

Our journeys were the followings, remember that the price is for two people:

Warsaw-Gdansk (7:24am-10:01am): 185,90 zł (39,79€). This one was the most expensive one but we got a bottle of water each for free and the seats were amazing.
Gdańsk-Poznań (9:07-11:58): 98 zł (20,98€) This felt the longest but we could rest and sleep a little bit since we were alone in the train car.
Poznań-Wrocław (8:46am-10:19am): 53,90 zł (11,54€). This was the train we lost, but you have more details of this adventure and how we solved it below.
Wroclaw-Krakow (19:59am-23:34am): 54 zł (11,56€). This was our last train and the only one we took at night. It was nice since we got the chance to explore Wroclaw and to do the Poznan-Krakow trip in two parts so we highly recommend doing it this way. However, we rather travel during the day.

How to read a Polish train ticket

To board the train, you must have a printed electronic ticket, which is valid for all passengers if purchased in the same reservation. Thus, we only needed one ticket that was valid for two people.

On the ticket, you will notice numerous numbers and, while everything is in Polish, you will be able to detect the following information:

Equivalent wagon seat count
Date and time of departure from the origin station
Arrival date and time at the destination station
Number of passengers using that electronic ticket

If you have any questions, you can always ask the conductor or someone who is waiting for the train at the station.

To give you an idea, we always took second class tickets, which correspond to tourist class trains in Spain. The trains in Poland are clean, and some even feature a plug in the seat for mobile phones or computers, as well as WiFi connectivity, but we didn’t use it because we were traveling over Europe and we had roaming.

During our journey from Poznan to Wroclaw via Poland by train, we faced a little hiccup. Our Uber got delayed, reaching the station just 10 minutes before our scheduled train. Rushing to platform 7 as indicated on our tickets for the Poland by train adventure, we found ourselves amidst a puzzle—platforms 1 to 6 and 8 to 12 were there, but no 7. Time was ticking, and before we knew it, our train had departed. Spotting another Poland by train service leaving from platform 11 in five minutes, we sprinted and managed to board just in time.

This regional train, part of the Poland by train network, was less plush compared to the others we’d traveled on, and we were without tickets. However, it was headed to Wroclaw, which was a relief. The ticket inspector was understanding despite the language barrier, and we sorted out our ticket situation on board. To our surprise, upon reaching Wroclaw Glowny, we were guided on how to claim a refund for the missed train, which we successfully received two weeks later.

So, a little hiccup in our Poland by train adventure turned into an unexpected experience, reminding us to stay calm and enjoy the journey, come what may.

General information

Tickets for regional trains and express trains in Poland are not expensive. Remember to check if you qualify for one of many discounts for for Children, students, the elderly, pensioners, the disabled, large families and others.

The price of a ticket will depend on the type of train, distance and the class. Tickets are available at the ticket windows at railway stations, or on the intercity.pl website. Tickets can also be bought on the train from the conductor, however there is a small charge for this service, and you are advised to inform the conductor that you have no ticket when you board the train. The lack of a valid ticket can lead to the paying of a fine.

It is also worth checking for different kinds of promotional tickets, e.g. excursion tickets (lower price when traveling at weekends), group tickets (for organized groups of more than 10 people tickets) or family tickets (when traveling with a family).

Transporting animals and bicycles

Both can be transported in the train after paying additional fee, however there are special conditions for transporting your pet or bicycle:

Animals To transport an animal by train you must fulfill the following conditions:

an animal must have his health carnet with vaccinations against rabies indicated and a valid ticket with a note of the species of animal;
dogs must wear muzzles, small animals should be transported in cages or in baskets;
animals can only be transported by adults.
most train companies allow your pet to be transported for free, if it fits small container

Bicycles A bicycle should be transported in the luggage-carriage. Not all trains however, have special places to transport bicycles. According to the regulations in this situation a bicycle can be transported in the first entrance doorway of the first carriage, or in the last entrance doorway of the last carriage. It is most important not to block passageways or the doors of the train with the bicycle. To transport a bicycle by train you need to buy a special ticket (remember about it when booking online).

Types of trains

The railway network in Poland is well organized both in respect of convenient connections and the standard of travel.

Types of trains:

Express trains (Intercity) run between the larger cities without stopping at smaller stations. Many of them are a higher standard and has restaurant carts.

Fast trains are a bit slower and of a bit less standard. Many have old-style compartments for up to eight people.

Regional trains carry passengers to smaller towns and have more stops, but give you chance to visit smaller Polish towns and villages. These trains usually run over short routes.

Train standards

Regardless of the type of train all of them are divided on 1st and 2nd class. The difference is mostly in comfortable seats, and more space during your journey.

You can obtain information on train times at railway stations at the office marked 'I’ (Information), or from timetables displayed at the railway station – most of them are displayed on screens, bilingual and easy to follow.

Train timetables on the Internet

Intercity (fastest) train tickets can be booked on: www.intercity.pl/en/

Information on all other trains is available on: rozklad-pkp.pl/en

If you are planning a train trip make sure to check your arrival time, whether you have to change trains, and if there is a restaurant car on the train. It may be important to check the length of time of your journey – regional trains can take as much as twice the time to cover the same distance.

Buying and using Tickets & Rail Passes in Poland

This guide will help you save money, time and confusion.

This guide to Polish train tickets, and how to buy them online, covers the basics of what you can expect to encounter when making bookings.

It aims to provide context for the tickets and journey options you should encounter, in usual circumstance, when making a booking either online or at the station for Polish train journeys .

SMTJ has striven to ensure that the advice presented is as accurate as possible, but a guide such as this cannot cover every combination of journey options.

Multiple operators provide the rail services in Poland and this impacts on how tickets are sold online.

Long-distance express trains are operated by PKP and it manages an online booking services dedicated to tickets for journeys within Poland by these trains. The majority of Polish regional and local trains are managed by Polregio and it also offers an online booking service for these trains, but some local and regional trains are provided by private companies. So this disparity creates complications, hence the launch of Koleo which operates as a one-stop shop for Polish rail tickets; particularly ideal for comparing the prices of PKP's express trains, with alternative (slower) journey options.

Introducing PKP:

State owned company PKP Intercity is the operator of the express train services in Poland:

It operates four types of train service and ranked in order from most expensive to cheapest they are:

(1) EIP (2) EIC PKP InterCity categorises international EC train services as EIC services, when booking tickets for journeys within Poland on these trains. (3) IC (4) TLK

Tickets for journeys by only these four types of services can be booked online on the PKP InterCity website ; so if PKP InterCity services don't serve a destination or station, it won't sell the end-to-end journey online. Though all of the major towns and cities in Poland are served by PKP InterCity's train services.

Note that you don’t have to be traveling by an EIP service in order to book tickets online.

Thirteen things worth knowing about booking tickets on the PKP InterCity website:

(1) For journeys within Poland tickets become available 30 days ahead of the travel datel the international tickets which can be booked on PKP InterCity are generally available up to two months in advance.

(2) The PKP InterCity website also sell tickets for direct international journeys by day and night trains on these routes

Warszawa – Poznan – Frankfurt (Oder) – Berlin
Warszawa – Katowice – Vienna/Wien
Warszawa – Mosco No other international train journeys/routes can be booked with PKP InterCity.

(3) All prices are shown in Polish zloty; (zl) 100zl = approx €23.

(4) Foreign nationals can book on PKP InterCity.

(5) When you look up a journey within Poland, you will only see* two prices per departure, a 1st class price and a 2nd class price. There is no choice of different types of tickets, you will automatically be offered only the cheapest price available on each departure that you choose. Though you don't need to be concerned about whether there are other tickets, with different terms and conditions re: refunds and exchange etc.

*The PKP InterCity booking system can be quirky, the ticket prices tend to be automatically shown for some departures and not others; though you can see the prices of those other departures if you click on them.

(6) Prices are cheaper the further ahead you can book, which is why it’s persevering with making an online booking. The discounted tickets are Promo tickets, but you don't have to specifically select them, you will automatically be offered the cheapest possible price for your journey. However, a sliding scale of prices is applied to these Promo tickets, so you'll make bigger savings the further ahead you can book.

You’re more likely to make significant savings of around 50% if you book ahead for 1st class tickets for the EIP and EIC services. For example, if you want to take an EIP train from Warsaw/Warszawa to Krakow and travel in 1st class, you can save more than 120 zl (approximately €26) by booking around three weeks ahead.

Having looked up more than 100 journeys it seems as though 2nd class tickets can typically be around one third cheaper if you book in advance; no matter which of the type of train service you want to travel by Though there is no absolute rule for this, PKP InterCity doesn’t seemingly apply specific terms and conditions governing how much you will save.

Tickets are also seemingly less likely to be discounted if you want to travel 1st class on IC and TLK services.

(7) PKP InterCity also offers specific discounts on the ticket prices, but these are dependent on who is making the journey; and as far as we glean you don’t have to be a Polish national to qualify for these discounts, which include:

100% off the ticket price for children aged three and under
30% off the ticket price for ‘Seniors’, people aged 60 and over

If tickets for a family group are booked on PKP, look out for the option to book 'Family Tickets'; there is a symbol/icon that needs to be ticked named 'Family Ticket' (ignore the button marked 'Big Family'.) The offer is valid provided that 2 to 5 persons, including at least one child under 16/aged 15 and under, will be travelling together. Clicking the Family Icon reduced the total cost for the entire party by 30%.

Students in full time education aged 18 and under can also qualify for a 37% discount if they are studying Polish history, geography, culture and language as part of their education. The document proving entitlement to this discount is a certificate issued by a Polish consul along with an identity document.

(8) Seat reservations are complimentary when booking tickets for any of the four services sold by PKP InterCity; your seat(s) will be assigned when booking. You can also opt choose window or aisle seats, and whether to sit in an open-plan coach/carriage and whether you want to sit at a table, or seats in a compartment (if available). There is also the opportunity to select wheelchair spaces

You can’t choose a forward-facing seat(s), but you can choose a specific seat on the train; though this is likely to be of use to only regular travellers.

(9) Because your seat(s) will be assigned when purchasing, your tickets will be specific to the departure you selected when booking. You can exchange your tickets to a different departure; in effect your original purchase will be automatically be refunded and you will be charged for your newly selected ticket(s). Meaning that if the price of your newly selected departure is higher than the ticket you originally booked, you’ll in effect be paying the difference in price between the two tickets. Keeping in mind that prices are likely to have risen after you made your initial booking.

(10) You don’t have to register to purchase, you can make a ‘guest booking’, but if you register you'll have access to your personal account, which you can use to manage your booking. For example, you'll need access to your account if you want to exchange or refund your tickets online.

(11) If you have booked tickets for a journey within Poland, you can apply for a full refund either online or at the station up to 15mins before departure.

(12) Tickets will be sent via email, they will be attached as a PDF. If you will be making a journey within Poland, you can either save this PDF document to your phone/mobile device; making sure you will be able to show the PDF to the conductor on the train Or you can print if off and take it with you.

Although, if you have booked an international journey on PKP InterCity you MUST print off the ticket and take it with you, it won’t be valid if you only save it to your mobile device.

(13) Bikes can be taken on any PKP InterCity train including the EIC, EIP and TLK trains, but a bike ticket is required for any train journey and are sold at a flat rate of PLN 9.10. More info is available here on our guide to taking bikes on to European trains.

Using Rail Passes on Polish express trains:

Travelling in Poland with an InterRail, Eurail or European East pass has recently become a lot simpler.

Rail pass users can hop on the Polregio services, but because ticket purchasers are automatically assigned seats on the four long-distance PKP train services – EIP, EIC, IC and TLK, rail pass users need to reserve seats prior to boarding these trains. However, these seat reservations can now be booked on the PKP website ; it has also published a how to reserve guide for Eurail and InterRail users.

Using rail passes on the EIC, IC and TLK services:

If you want to travel by an EIC, IC or TLK train service, you can also obtain these reservations at a station ticket desk, the fee will be 1zl; around €0.25. So, as you no longer have to pay a premium to travel by the superior EIC trains, it’s worth checking to see if those services are available on the route you wish to take; and if they are, target those trains, if the departure/arrival times suit.

It’s a good idea to book these reservations when you first arrive at a Polish station, if you book them at the last minute, you’ll risk having to book against the clock; you’ll need to have made the reservation 15 mins before departure, and there’s a small risk of the seats being sold out on your first choice of train.

You can also purchase the reservations for the EIC trains before you arrive in Poland, either online with the Eurail or InterRail reservation service, though there will be a booking fee of €2 per person per reservation; or at a Reisezentrum travel desk at a major station in Germany. Though if you do so, you will be then also be charged the equivalent of €3.50 by the conductor when you board the train.

Using rail passes on the EIP trains:

Booking reservations for the premium EIP train services is different, whether you have a 1st or 2nd class rail pass, you need to buy a supplement which is separate to the seat reservation fee. Both the supplement and the seat reservation cost PLN 43 (approx €10), If you have a 1st class pass, your reservation will include the complimentary drinks and light meals, which are served to 1st class ticket holders on the EIP trains.

Buy your supplement online on the PKP Intercity website and the seat reservation will be complimentary. It has also published a how to reserve guide for Eurail and InterRail users.

Or you can purchase these EIP supplement at a ticket desk at a Polish station, at least 15 mins before your train is due to depart. Although there is a small risk, that by the time you arrive in Poland, seats will be sold out on your first choice of departure. Though if you book at the station you will receive a complimentary seat reservation.

You can also purchase the supplement and reservations for the EIP trains before you arrive in Poland with the Eurail or InterRail reservation service, though the cost will be €20 + a €2 booking fee.

Or you can book the seat reservations at a station outside of Poland, including at a Reisezentrum travel desk at a major station in Germany - and you can then buy the supplement at a Polish station, or from the conductor on the train,

Rail pass users must pay reservation fees before boarding both the daytime express trains to and from Poland, the EC trains*; and on the international overnight trains.

*According to the Eurail and InterRail websites, the reservation fees still apply to international journeys by the EC trains, despite fees no longer being charged to travel by these trains for domestic journeys within Poland; and in the neighboring countries that they travel through.

These rail pass reservations for the day and night trains cannot be booked on the PKP website, but they can be booked at:

stations in Poland
on the Eurail or InterRail reservation services; though booking fees will be payable
at a Reisezentrum travel desk at a hauptbahnhof, the city centre stations in Germany
for journeys to/from Austria; the daytime trains can be booked on the OBB website
for journeys to/from Czechia; both the day and night trains can be booked on the CD website -
the EC trains to/from Germany can be booked on the DB website

First-timer's guide to Poland

Sep 29, 2023 • 7 min read

Supported by

Poland has a long, fascinating, sometimes tragic history, played out against a backdrop of royal castles and palaces, picturesque old towns and incredible landscapes.

From the Carpathian Mountains in the south to the Great Masurian Lakes in the north, Poland is a dream destination if you’re up for an activity-driven vacation – hiking, cycling and kayaking opportunities are abundant, plus there’s skiing in the winter.

If urban pleasures are more your thing, vibrant cities such as the capital Warsaw , the atmospheric old capital Kraków , and revamped 19th-century industrial powerhouse Łódź do not disappoint. Each offers masses of cultural attractions alongside delicious dining and lively nightlife scenes – all at very affordable prices.

As Poland is a big country packed with travel possibilities, you’re sure to have questions. Here are some tips and practical advice on how to get the most out of your first trip to Poland.

When should I go to Poland?

There’s no time of the year to specifically avoid when scheduling a trip. For fine weather and the chance to join summer festivals and events such as Kraków’s Jewish Culture Festival and Warsaw’s Summer Jazz Days , come between May and early September.

Towns and cities come alive as the warmer temperatures tempt everyone outside for alfresco dining and drinking. This is peak season, too, for visiting Poland’s 23 national parks.

The countryside in spring and autumn can also be very beautiful. Winter is the quietest season, except in ski resorts such as Zakopane . Come prepared for frigid temperatures and sloshing through snow and rain.

Compensations include low season rates at hotels and plenty of excellent museums in the major cities in which to shelter from the elements. Autumn through early spring is also when performing arts institutions such as Warsaw’s Teatr Wielki and Filharmonia Narodowa run their season of top-grade shows.

How much time do I need to visit Poland?

Two, or better, three days is the minimum needed for a short city break to either Warsaw or Kraków. You won’t have enough time to cover everything, but you will be able to get a feel for these places and tick off the main attractions.

If you’re prepared to move around quickly, you could cram in more of Poland over 10 days to two weeks, adding to your itinerary metropolises such as Gdańsk (also close to the Baltic seaside resort of Sopot ) and Łódź, as well as smaller historic towns like the artists’ retreat Kazimierz Dolny and Zamość , a perfectly preserved 16th-century Renaissance town.

Have a month to spare? Now you’re talking! This will give you the opportunity to explore rural backwaters and national parks such as World Heritage-listed Białowieża National Park , home to some 800 free-roaming European bison, Poland’s national symbol and Europe’s largest land mammal; and Karkonosze National Park with its spectacular Ice Age glacier-carved landscapes.

Is it easy to get in and around Poland?

Poland is tethered to the world by international flights. The capital’s main airport is the central Warsaw Chopin Airport , with Modlin Airport , 39km (24 miles) north of the city, handling budget carriers.

Other international airports include Gdańsk Lech Wałęsa Airport, Katowice Airport, Kraków John Paul II International Airport, Łódż Airport and Wrocław Airport . There are also excellent rail and bus links, especially with Western European neighbors, including overnight train services to Berlin and Vienna .

Getting around Poland itself is a breeze. There’s a comprehensive system of buses and trains offering both frequent services and affordable prices. For more remote parts, including nearly all the national parks, you’ll really need your own set of wheels.

Hiring a car is straightforward and the roads have vastly improved in recent years (although you will encounter some unsealed roads in the most rural regions). Major cities and towns all have decent public transport, and you can easily cover historic old town centers on foot.

Top things to do in Poland

Kraków, the former royal capital, is a stunner with its heady blend of history and harmonious architecture. At its heart are the vast Rynek Główny, Europe’s largest medieval marketplace, and the magnificent Wawel Royal Castle , on a hill above the Old Town.

But that's just the start – every part of the city is fascinating, from the former Jewish district of Kazimierz and its lively nightlife to the atomic fallout shelters of Nowa Huta .

Warsaw had to be almost completely rebuilt after WWII. The powerful Warsaw Rising Museum focuses on the darkest hours of WWII, while the Museum of Warsaw superbly documents the city's rise, fall and resurrection. Also don’t miss the award-winning POLIN Museum of the History of Polish Jews , and regal Wilanów Palace and surrounding lush parkland.

Toruń , a walled Gothic city on the Vistula River, miraculously escaped WWII intact. Wander through the UNESCO-listed Old Town crammed with museums, churches, grand mansions and squares. When you’re flagging, perk up with a peppery gingerbread cookie, Toruń’s signature snack, which you can make yourself at the Gingerbread Museum .

The UNESCO-listed Białowieża National Park holds one of Europe’s last vestiges of primeval forest, which you can visit in the company of a guide. The bison, which was once extinct outside zoos, has been successfully reintroduced here, although your best bet for seeing these magnificent animals is the region’s European Bison Show Reserve .

My favorite thing to do in Poland

I’m a huge fan of street art and Łódź has embraced this public form of creative expression unlike anywhere else in Poland - the city is practically one giant art gallery! There are well over 200 public works of art ranging from massive painted murals to installations involving neon, nails and porcelain tiles.

Among my favorites are Pasaż Róży, a dazzling courtyard completely plastered with mirror fragments arranged in swirling rose patterns, and Wiedźmin, a 70m tall mural designed by Jakub Rebelka on the sides of adjacent apartment blocks – it’s a homage to the Witcher series of fantasy books by Łódź-based author Andrzej Sapkowski.

How much money do I need for Poland?

Like everywhere in Europe in recent times, prices have been rising in Poland. That said, the country offers great value, especially when it comes to accommodation, dining out and entertainment. Getting around by public transport is also a bargain.

Hostel room: 60 zł
Basic room for two: 200 zł
Self-catering apartment (including Airbnb): 120 zł
Public transport ticket: 3.40 zł
Coffee: 15-20 zł
Sandwich: 15 zł
Dinner for two: 150-200 zł
Beer/pint at the bar: 12 zł

Is Poland part of the EU?

Yes, which means if you’re crossing into the country from neighboring EU countries – the Czech Republic (Czechia), Germany , Lithuania and Slovakia – there are no border formalities. However, rather than the euro, Poland’s national currency is the złoty (zł, sometimes also abbreviated as PLN) which dates back to the 14th century.

Most places accept card or electronic payments but sometimes you will need to pay in cash so it’s handy to keep some money in your wallet.

How easy is it to get online?

Very easy. Depending on your home mobile phone/internet plans, you should be able to surf the web and stay in touch using a smartphone or tablet. There are plenty of wifi hotspots and some of them are free.

What’s Polish food like?

Locals like nothing better than scoffing comfort foods such as pączki (rose-jam filled doughnuts) or a plate of pierogi , dough dumplings stuffed with anything from cottage cheese, potato and meat to blueberries or other fruits.

Traditional cooking is rustic and flavorful and can be summed up by Poland’s signature kiełbasa sausages. These are usually made with pork and various seasonings, though other meats, like beef and veal, can be added.

Beyond such staples Polish cuisine also includes hearty soups and dishes such as beef tartare. In the major cities and towns, there’s a wide choice of world cuisines alongside creative renditions of vegetarian and vegan dishes.

Ghana’s newly imported train from Poland collides with lorry in test run

A train that Ghana recently acquired from Poland has collided with a lorry during a test run in the Eastern Region, the authorities say.

It rammed into the abandoned vehicle that was on the tracks of the Tema-Mpakadan railway line on Thursday, causing minor damage to the train's cabin area, the railway ministry said.

The train driver, railway inspectors and passengers all escaped unhurt.

Police say they have arrested the driver of the abandoned lorry.

There was no-one in the lorry when it was hit and the location where the it was left was not designated as an authorised level crossing, the ministry of railways development said in a statement .

"Despite the immediate application of the emergency braking system, the train was unable to come to a complete stop before colliding with the vehicle," it added.

Railways Minister John Peter Amewu described the incident on Facebook as "unfortunate, irresponsible, and unpatriotic!".

Preliminary investigation showed that the suspected driver left the truck unattended on the railway line, leading to a collision with the train, the Ghana Police Service said in a brief statement .

The authorities said the investigation into the incident would continue, and assured the safe operation of the railway system.

Ghana bought two diesel-powered trains from Poland to boost the railway transport system.

The first new Diesel Multiple Unit (DMU) train arrived in the country two weeks ago and it was designated to operate on the new 100km (60-mile) Tema-Mpakadan line.

The second one will be shipped in May, and it is expected to arrive in August, railway agency chief Yaw Osuwu told local media.

The first train with 12 modern passenger coaches was conducting a test run on the line, which is a new route aimed at improving public transport opening up Ghana's eastern corridor.

The line is part of a planned 1,000 km project which is expected to connect Ghana and Burkina Faso through the port of Tema, local media reported.

Mysteries of the 2024 NFL Draft, grading past first-round QBs | Zero Blitz

Jason Fitz and Frank Schwab join forces to get their final thoughts on the 2024 NFL Draft in before it all kicks off on Thursday night. The duo start with the Denver Broncos' new uniforms and Fitz' strong thoughts on Arena football. There's a lot of hype around the quarterbacks in this year's draft, but Fitz and Frank provide a reality check by grading every first-round quarterback selected between 2018 and 2022, assigning only 3 As and 7 Fs (and having a very real conversation around Justin Herbert's grade). There are still a few big question marks in this year's draft that will have big ramifications, so Fitz and Frank go detective mode and discuss what the Washington Commanders will do at 2, the New England Patriots at 3, whether or not Michael Penix Jr. and Bo Nix will make it past Denver, the Minnesota Vikings and Las Vegas Raiders in the middle of the first round and if the Dallas Cowboys will make a move to address their biggest hole. The dynamic duo finish off the show by snake drafting the biggest draft busts of all time.
