Adamivka was named in honor of Adam Sapieha, a prominent Polish landowner who contributed to the early development of the Truskavets spa resort.
The park's layout was designed in the late 19th century to facilitate 'terrenkurs' therapy, a prescribed method of walking on specific gradients to improve cardiovascular health.
The park contains endemic plant species and is part of the protected forest belt that influences the local microclimate of the spa region.
Unlike the central park, Adamivka retains more of its original 19th-century forestry aesthetic with less modern infrastructure interference.
Adamivka Park is a historic forest park located in the resort town of Truskavets, serving as the northern section of the city's broader spa park system. The park is characterized by its hilly terrain, dense deciduous and coniferous forest, and a network of paved walking paths known locally as 'terrenkurs'. It historically served as a therapeutic walking site for visitors to the nearby mineral water springs. The landscape features notable natural elevation changes that provide varied intensity for walkers. It is significantly less developed and more tranquil than the central Truskavets resort park. The park serves as a green buffer between the urban residential areas and the surrounding woodland.

Wear sturdy walking shoes, as the park features uneven terrain and natural dirt trails in addition to paved paths.
Bring a reusable water bottle to refill at nearby public pump rooms after completing your walk.
Carry insect repellent if visiting during the humid summer months, as the dense forest canopy retains moisture.
Do not attempt the steeper forest paths if you have mobility issues or are wearing improper footwear.
Maintain silence to respect the therapeutic nature of the park; do not stray from marked paths to protect local flora.
