It runs through two voivodeships, Greater Poland and Kuyavian Pomeranian, and runs along the palaces and royal courts that the Polish kings and dukes from the dynasty of Piasts Visited regularly in the early Middle Ages. The roads lead through the historical regions of Greater Poland, Kuyavia and Pałuki. The path is part of the Way of St. James in Poland. You can hike the path, make a pilgrimage or even drive off by car, motorbike or motorcycle. Bus tours are also offered.

The sections of the hiking trails are together approx. 300 km long and were planned and built immediately after the Second World War as part of the millennium of the founding of the state of Poland in 1966. The highway partly follows the path Autostrada A2.

The signposted and black marked long-distance cycle path Piast way has a slightly different route and is about 104 km long.
