Parks Places Map
Parks in Poland:
Lazienki
Make use of the free walking routes; they’re well marked and give you a great view of everything without extra cost! I missed a few because I didn’t follow the signs.
Shchitnitsky Park
I suggest visiting Shchitnitsky Park early in the morning around 8 AM to enjoy the peaceful atmosphere and avoid the crowds, especially on weekends.
I recommend checking out the park during different seasons; each one offers a unique vibe. Autumn is especially gorgeous with the foliage!
Bring your camera! The park is super photogenic, and you'll find many picturesque spots that you'll want to capture. Don't forget to snap some photos by the water!
My advice is to check the park's event schedule before visiting. There might be local performances or markets happening that can enhance your experience!
Oytsovsky National Park
Download a map before you go. I didn't and ended up lost for a bit, which wasted some time. The signage isn’t always the best, so being prepared helps.
Look for the less popular trails. I took the route that everyone raves about, and it was packed. The hidden paths were so much more peaceful and beautiful!
Krakow Planty
I suggest setting aside at least two hours to stroll around. There are lots of nooks and crannies I missed when I rushed through it. Take your time and soak in the pretty sights!
Slovinsky National Park
My advice is to wear sturdy shoes. The paths can get sandy and uneven, and I slipped a couple of times in my flip-flops. Totally not fun!
Make sure to check the weather before you go. I thought it'd be sunny but ended up caught in a drizzle. A light rain jacket would’ve been a lifesaver for me!
I suggest you bring some snacks and water, as the park can be a bit remote and you won’t find many shops nearby... I learned that the hard way and had to rely on some not-so-great vending machines
Henryk Jordan Park
I suggest visiting early in the morning around 8 am for a peaceful stroll. The park is less crowded at that time and you can enjoy the tranquility and the fresh air.
Wroclaw South Park
Pack a picnic! I found some great green spots to chill, and grabbing takeout from nearby shops saved me money. Plus, eating outdoors is such a nice vibe.
Park Staromiejski
While there's some street parking, I recommend using public transport or a bike. It’s more convenient and saves you from hunting for parking spots which were limited during my visit
Tatra National Park
Bring cash for entry fees! I was caught off guard when I realized some places inside the park don't accept cards. Always good to have some in hand, just in case.
I recommend packing extra snacks and water. The hikes can be tougher than expected, and having food on hand saved me some time from looking for shops!
