Southern shore of Zakrzówek Lagoon

Highlight (Segment) • Lake

Perhaps the most dramatic are the old limestone walls of the quarries (Zalew Zakrzówek was created when it was filled with water) on the southern shores of the reservoir - it feels like the rocks are all around you. There is a nice, slightly rocky, beach here, and benches to rest on.

View of the swimming area in Zakrzówek Park

Highlight • Viewpoint

An extraordinary and unusual view from here of the bathing area on Zakrzówek Reservoir - a popular place, as you can easily imagine, for the residents of Krakow (they are lucky!).

For the youngest, there are 40 cm deep paddling pools, and for the experienced and older, pools up to 3.5 meters deep. And of course, those views of crystal clear waters after the flooding of the former limestone quarry.

Zakrzówek Swimming Area

Highlight • Lake

There are strict access restrictions to the floating bathing platforms.
On a nice summer day, a queue quickly forms. Once the maximum number of bathers is reached, you have to wait until other people leave.
It's worth arriving early if the weather is nice.
