Ginie [ˈɡiɲe] (German: Gingen) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Kalinowo, within Ełk County, Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship, in northern Poland.[1] It lies approximately 7 kilometres (4 mi) east of Kalinowo, 28 km (17 mi) east of Ełk, and 150 km (93 mi) east of the regional capital Olsztyn.

Before 1945 the area was part of Germany (East Prussia); from the unification of Germany in 1871 until World War II, it was the easternmost settlement of the country — the title today is held by Neißeaue in Saxony.

The village has a population of 80.
