Overview

Park Zdrojowy is a historic 25-hectare landscape park in the center of the spa town Nałęczów, established in the late 18th century. The park is centered around a large pond featuring local swans and distinct water-bound birdlife. It serves as the grounds for an active sanatorium complex, integrating historical medical architecture with natural greenery. The park layout incorporates diverse tree species, including many centuries-old specimens that provide significant canopy coverage. It is connected to the Nałęczów Mineral Water facility, where visitors can sample the local curative water. The park grounds are flat and designed for therapeutic walking paths intended for spa guests and public visitors. It contains several historical villas and monuments integrated into the landscape design.

Insider tips

Bring a reusable cup or bottle to taste the local mineral water at the designated spring station.

Follow the designated walking loops to see both the main pond and the secluded forest trails at the park's perimeter.

Visit during the early morning to avoid the peak crowds of sanatorium patients during their therapeutic walk sessions.

What to avoid

Feeding the swans, as the park management discourages this to maintain water quality and bird health.

Etiquette

Maintain a quiet volume out of respect for the sanatorium patients resting in nearby facilities; keep paths clear for those with limited mobility.
