The R10 cycling trail ends just before the border with Russia (Królewiec Oblast). Accessible by bike via a gravel road in very good condition. No border crossing.

A very good starting point for a hike toward the Russian border. However, the road there takes some getting used to: very narrow, lots of potholes, crooked armor plates...but kind of cool.

Best starting point for hiking to the border, but the access is, due to habit, somewhat worse than the patrol roads on the former inner-German border. Drive slowly and hope that there is no oncoming traffic, because then it gets really tight.
