Gorski train – routes and services
Gorski is an IC-category train running daily on several routes connecting the west and east of Poland. The name is used by four services operating routes between Chełm, Szczecin Główny, Zielona Góra Główna and Poznań Główny. The timetable includes both longer journeys across half of Poland and shorter sections between neighbouring cities.
As the Gorski train runs daily, it is easy to fit it into your travel plans regardless of the day of the week. Before setting off, it is worth checking the current timetable, as route or time changes occur more often than once a season. You can check these updates in the PolishTrains search engine before choosing a specific service.
The price of a ticket for Gorski depends primarily on whether you travel by IC Intercity, which dominates departures from Chełm, or take a PolRegio train – the price difference between these categories is sometimes almost twofold, with PolRegio being the cheaper option. If you are looking for a lower price, it is worth comparing the available categories before purchasing on PolishTrains rather than choosing the first service offered.
Passengers departing from Chełm most often buy tickets two to four weeks before travelling. A considerable proportion also choose to buy a day or two before departure. August is the month in which ticket sales from Chełm increase noticeably, which is worth taking into account when planning a holiday journey in advance. PolishTrains shows seat availability on the selected service sufficiently far in advance, making it easy to reserve a ticket before prices change.
