Pomeranian Switzerland


Pomeranian Switzerland is a hill country region in Pomerania in the Polish Voivodeship of West Pomerania. It is part of the West Pomeranian Lake District on the Baltic Uplands. In Polish, the term Pomeranian Switzerland has not established itself and is only rarely used. In Poland, they tend to speak of the Dramburg Lake District when referring to Pomeranian Switzerland. The region around Połczyn Zdrój, by contrast, is known in Polish as Polzin Switzerland. The area has been described as a "region of beautiful lakes surrounded by beautiful woods."

Location

Pomeranian Switzerland lies about west of Szczecinek and runs from Połczyn Zdrój in the north to Drawsko Pomorskie in the southwest and Złocieniec and Czaplinek by the Drawsko Lake in the south. Through the region runs the Polzin–Tempelburg section of route 163. The hill country of Pomeranian Switzerland rises to about 250 metres above sea level.
