Information

Crooked wood (Polish: Krzywy Las) near Nowe Czernewo village is located 30 km from Szczecin (about 45 min drive). It is the only crooked forest in Poland. At the area of not even 2 hectares tourists can find 400 deformed pines. The trunks of all these trees at a height of 10 to 50 centimeters above the ground are crooked. The curves go as high as 3 meters and then the trees straighten and go straight to the sun. The trees are of 11 to 12 m high and are about 75 years old. Nobody knows exactly why the trees are crooked. The most popular theory says that someone damaged them on purpose to produce crooked wood for carpentry works. Tourists that want to admire these trees should use a red walking trail that goes from Gryfin to Mieszkowice. Nature and peculiarity lovers should like this unusual area of our country.
