Bednarski Park is a densely wooded park in the Podg贸rze district of Krakow. The paths here are asphalt, but not only that. There are many charming corners - the park's landscape is varied by limestone rocks. Interestingly, the park was created on the site of a former medieval quarry, and it was established while the quarry was still in operation!

In the 1950s, a large ice rink operated at the bottom of the former quarry during winter, attracting many families. Colorful lanterns hung above the ice, and an orchestra played, creating a wonderful, unique atmosphere perfect for meetings and fun.

The park has been recently renovated - it's worth seeing the result!

The biggest attraction of the park will surely delight its youngest visitors - a new playground with a large slide and attractions for toddlers has been built. Importantly, the playground is well-shaded, which is great for the upcoming hot days!

Bird and Animal Watching

The park is home to many species of birds and squirrels, which are tame enough to take hazelnuts from your hand. With a bit of luck, you might spot a hare. Walking towards the gym, you can see a tawny owl box. Near the playground, there are nesting boxes inhabited by birds like tits.
