The best road cycling routes around Tychy

The towers and quite a few other things are in a raw state. On the stairs are the years 2007 and 2008, when they were presumably cast and installed. However, it looks as if construction work has been stopped.

The Street Art Gallery in the underground passage (officially known as the „Art in the Underground” project) is an extremely spectacular point on the map of Tychy, located in a pedestrian-cycle tunnel under the DK1 route (Beskidzka Street) at the height of the Paprocany district. It is a must-stop (POI) to add to the Komoot app, which allows you to combine cultural immersion with a smooth bike ride.

It's hard to find a native of Tychy who doesn't have a childhood photo on the back of one of these teddy bears. In 2018, the bears officially got their names (chosen by residents in a competition). The park itself is a clean, densely wooded square with a central fountain, which is perfect as a cool stop on hot afternoons.

Park Północny has a completely different atmosphere than St. Francis Park. It is much wilder, more naturalistic, and wooded. Its greatest attraction are three large fishponds (northern, central, and southern), which are a paradise for local waterfowl, amphibians, and unique vegetation (the protected water chestnut grows here, among other plants). The park's absolute highlight is a charming island on one of the ponds, accessed by a modern wooden footbridge (pier) and a Roman pavement. It's an ideal spot, isolated from the hustle and bustle, for a short rest on the route. In the area of Elfów and Edukacji streets, you will also find characteristic red architectural frames serving as original benches that frame the views of the greenery.

The revitalized, historic heart of the city, officially known as Farski Square. It is the ideal place for a short rest during a bike or walking tour. The square's name comes from the former parish church (rectory), around which this charming market square was created. It is worth stopping here by the fountain, seeing the characteristic Bell Tower Gate, and the historic building of the current library. Around the square, you will find benches, shade from trees, and local shops where you can easily replenish your supplies for the rest of your route.

This is really huge, but is such a scale really necessary? I don't know🤔

Most Bronisław - that's its name. When driving towards Oświęcim from Wola or Jedlina, it's the only option for cyclists. The new Oświęcim bypass is not adapted for cyclists and pedestrians.
