Top 7 Lakes around Konstantynów Łódzki

Beautiful photos, thank you for sharing. 🙏

A haven. There's less and less water in this pond.

Park im. 1 Maja, Stawy Stefańskiego is a recreational facility There is a pond with an area of 11.4 ha in the park, which is an extension of the Ner riverbed. The pond was once privately owned and part of the Ruda farm. There was a manor house nearby. After World War I, the pond was bought by a private entrepreneur, Stefański. As a result of exploitative management, most of the animals living here died out or left the area. Year by year, the pollution of the pond increased and it required thorough cleaning. This was later done by the occupiers. After the end of World War II, Ruda Pabianicka found itself within the city limits of Łódź, and the park became the subject of interest of the city authorities. A few years after the war, it was decided to build a recreation center in Ruda Pabianicka. Part of the area on the western side was designated for the park. Roads were built, trees and shrubs were planted. In 1949, construction of a swimming pool began. The pond was deepened, and a sleigh hill was built from the excavated sand, while the stables from the former farm were transformed into changing rooms for guests spending time by the water. A second, smaller pond was also created, acting as a settling pond and stocked with fish. The work was completed in 1951. A bituminous surface was laid in the park alleys, restaurants and other buildings were renovated. The pond overlaps the riverbed of the Ner, stretches for 2.5 km and is up to 165 m wide, with a depth of 1 m to 4 m.

The Municipal Sports and Recreation Centre in Pabianice covers an area of approx. 30 ha, a significant part of which is green areas. It is a complex of sports, recreation and tourist facilities located at ul. Grota Roweckiego 3, and ul. Bugaj 110, which include: indoor swimming pool; basketball hall; tennis centre hall; outdoor tennis courts; training pitches and the main pitch with a natural surface, athletics stadium, "Włókniarz" hotel "Lewityn" centre

The park is located in Łódź, in the Łódź Górna district, between Rzgowska, Paradna and Kosynierów Gdyńskich streets. The park, cut by an irregular system of paths, is unevenly wooded and has extensive lawns. Among the trees, five are particularly valuable. These are a common ash and four small-leaved lime trees aged 160–180 years. In the northern part of the park there is a historic manor house, facing south. An alley of trees leads to it from Rzgowska Street. The manor house was built in the late 18th century by Benedykt Górski. It is a small, single-storey building erected from larch logs with a log construction, plastered. It is covered with a shingled, broken, Polish roof.

A very nice place for walking and cycling.

Great spot for family picnics, but make sure to take something to sit on, because the benches are few and far from the water. Swimming is forbidden, but the ban is commonly ignored by dogs and children, including my own.
