Hi,
I'm looking at spending a month in Poland in September / October 2012.
My intention is to fly into Katowice, spend a month travelling around and then fly out of Gdansk.
I did something similar 5 years ago, using busses & trains and visited Krakow, Zakopane, Warsaw, Wroclaw & Sopot.
Can anyone recommend any 'must see sights / places' that I can build into my journey.
I'm on a budget, but flexible and very adventurous!
Many Thanks
A

This time, skip Sopot and spend some time in Gdansk. The Old Town is beautiful but there are other places to see and things to do here.

but there are other places to see

for example a brand-new, shiny, southern beltway of Gdansk ;)

Actually, I was thinking of Westerplatte, Oliwa Park, the hill behind the main train station, the Solidarity museum, and many others.

Thanks guys, I failed to mention that I have visited Gdansk on another trip, I was thinking this time, maybe heading to the 5 lakes area - any advice?
