In Leba I had to watch carefully for the path markings. E9 follows the outlet of Lake Sarbske all the way until reaching Neuhof / Nowecin. Thereby I was passing an older summer cottage colony. Here I had to walk around a luxuriously rebuild estate that now functions as a hotel. At the camp ground the path follows the lake. Attention: A short turnoff to the left before picking up the former direction again thereby passing by summer cottages. The path markings are almost non-existing. The camp ground caretaker had no idea of the E9 even so it passes directly by the entrance. The path continues along meadows and through a forest until reaching a ditch. I followed the ditch to the right, had soon to turn left again thereby bypassing another camp ground and deviating from the map arrived at Sarbske / Sarbsk. This part was well marked again. Following paved roads I then arrived at Wicko / Ulinia. At the beginning of the hamlet the path turns left on gravel roads through meadows towards the Baltic Sea. During the summer season there is a small kiosk in Wicko / Ulinia.


Upon arriving at a parking lot the path enters a nature reserve the E9 passes through until reaching Stilo / Osetnik. This partly wet section arrives at a paved road, a parking lot a possibility to stop for a bite to eat. Now the path crosses the forested dune with the accessible light tower of Stilo / Osetnik and finally is back at the Baltic Sea coast. The E9 follows the shore line through forests. I preferred to walk along the beach. Near Lübtow (Beach) / Lubiatowo is a single restaurant that was still open. Here I stopped for lunch. The path now goes through the hinterland thereby passing through Lübtow / Lubiatowo all the way until reaching Wittenburg / Bialogora. Instead I staid at the inviting beach until arriving at the beach access of Wittenburg / Bialogora. There is a concrete road into the town.
