Gmina Czaplinek

Gmina Czaplinek is an administrative district in West Pomeranian Voivodeship that combines urban and rural areas in northwestern Poland. The territory includes several villages such as Bielice, Broczyno, and Brzezinka that spread around the main center.

The administrative district was formed during Poland's reorganization of local boundaries and received Czaplinek as its administrative center. This restructuring followed the modern reshaping of local governance in the region.

The name comes from a local bird species and reflects how people are distributed between the main town and surrounding villages. This mix shapes how the community lives and uses its spaces today.

The area is best explored on foot or by car since settlements are spread across wide distances. Visitors should plan travel between the individual villages and the main town to make the most of their time.

Parts of the territory lie within Drawsko Landscape Park, a protected natural area with its own ecosystems. This location creates an interesting blend where administrative boundaries meet natural reserves.
