a nice place for running and walking

Szczęśliwicki Park is a city park in Warsaw's Ochota district, between Włodarzewska and Drawska streets. It was created in the 1960s on land that had been used for clay quarries and landfills, which had not been previously built on due to the proximity of the Warsaw Fortress forts. The reclaimed areas were developed socially - water reservoirs and a ski slope were created, and most of the area was wooded. The park has a sports and recreational character - it includes Glinianki Szczęśliwickie (approx. 7 ha), a year-round ski slope (Górka Szczęśliwicka, 138-152 m above sea level), an open swimming pool, playing fields and OSiR facilities. The water reservoirs are stocked and supervised by angling (PZW Circle No. 7). In 2020, the wooden pier was renovated. The park has natural significance - there are many species of birds here (approx. 70), as well as amphibians and fish. The flora includes poplars, maples, limes and other pioneer species. Despite the anthropogenic origin of the substrate and degraded soil, the area is an important haven of biodiversity in Warsaw.

The Bemowski Forest is a forest complex located in the western part of Warsaw, covering the areas of Bemowo and part of the Stare Babice commune. It is characterized by partially marshy areas, with numerous regulated watercourses and canals. There are two nature reserves on its territory: Łosiowe Błota and Kalinowa Łąka, as well as numerous recreational areas, including health trails, the "moose trail", a playground and tourist shelters. In the spring, some of the trails are flooded by water. The Bemowski Forest is also a place with a rich history. In the 16th century, Wojciech Oczko, the court physician and secretary of Stefan Batory, lived here. The forest also contains historical monuments, including Fort II A (Fort Radiowo) from the 19th century, which was part of the defensive line of Warsaw. In the interwar period, the Transatlantic Central Radiotelegraph Station was located in this area, and during World War II the area was used by the Germans. The Bemowski Forest also witnessed the events of the Warsaw Uprising, when the insurgents were shot down during their march to the Kampinos Forest. After the war, a military radar station and a landfill, the so-called Garbage Mountain, were built on its territory.

Raszyn Ponds is a faunal nature reserve in the Raszyn commune, protecting a rich ecosystem of water and marsh birds. It includes several ponds that were created in the 18th century and today serve both a protective and economic function. The reserve has an area of over 155 ha and is under active protection. It is an important place for ornithologists - about 100 species of birds nest here, including grebes, swans, herons, cormorants and black-headed gulls. The ponds are surrounded by floodplain forests and reed beds, and valuable plant species grow on their areas, including orchids. The reserve is open to tourists - there are observation towers here, as well as monuments such as the Baroque statue of God the Father and the Tchorek plaque commemorating the victims of executions from World War II.

Amazing reservoir 💪, worth a visit

The 6-hectare reservoir serves as a retention reservoir. Its main purpose is flood protection, but it is also an ideal place for residents and tourists to relax. At its shore, there is a square with a playground, picnic tables and a gazebo. Bathing is prohibited in the reservoir, but it is still a great place for a family picnic, a bike trip or a walk. In autumn and spring, the area changes into a kingdom of birds. Here you can see herons, swans and several species of ducks, including teals, mallards and pochards. It is worth taking a closer look at the latter - these seasoned divers can dive to a depth of 2.5 meters!

A very nice reserve, it's worth going and visiting Karolin and the Palace right away :-)

A forest nature reserve located on the western edge of the "Zaborów" forest area. It was established in 1977 on the initiative of Witold Tyrakowski. It covers an area of 24.17 ha (the founding act stated 24.02 ha). It includes one of the oldest oak and pine stands in Masovia. The old trees growing there are about 200 years old. Foxes, deer, hares, bats, squirrels, moles live here, and jays, cuckoos, woodpeckers and thrushes nest here. In addition, nuthatches, bullfinches, finches, and buzzards were also seen. The undergrowth includes species typical of luminous oak forests - white cinquefoil, narrow-leaved lungwort, gorse and lily of the valley. https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rezerwat_im._Boles%C5%82awa_Hryniewieckiego
