Skandawa is a village in northern Poland, in the administrative district of Gmina Barciany, Kętrzyn County, and the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship. It lies approximately north-west of Barciany, north-north-west of Kętrzyn, and north-east of the regional capital, Olsztyn. It is located close to the border with the Kaliningrad Oblast of Russia.
The 390-km-long Line 353 of Polish State Railways (PKP) connects Poznań to Skandawa and the Russian border ( north-east of Skandawa and south-west of Zheleznodorozhny) via Olsztyn and Korsze. Since 2000 the final stretch from Korsze to the border has been a freight-only branch, and the railway station at Korsze ( to the south-west) is today Skandawa's nearest passenger facility.
