Overview

Forest Stadium (Leśny Stadion) in Sopot is a multi-purpose outdoor venue integrated directly into the surrounding Trójmiejski Park Krajobrazowy forest. The facility features a running track and a natural grass pitch that utilizes the bowl-shaped terrain for wind protection and acoustics. It serves as a hub for local athletics, football matches, and outdoor fitness training. The stadium is frequently used as a starting or finish point for trail running and cross-country events due to its direct access to the forest trail network. Its design prioritizes natural integration over concrete seating, with steep grass slopes surrounding the perimeter used as informal spectator mounds. The venue remains one of the few sports facilities in the region that functions as both a professional training ground and a public recreational space.
