On what if not on a bike it is best to visit Krakow and its surroundings. The infrastructure of bicycle paths is developing at a surprising pace and Krakow itself is among the leading cities in terms of the length of bicycle paths. Once you've sat down on your bike, it's best to go for a ride on the Vistula Boulevards is a picturesque place in the center of Krakow at the foot of the Wawel Castle. Along with the adjacent fragments of the Vistula embankments, as well as Rudawa, are a popular recreational and leisure place for both Krakow residents and tourists who love to move on motorcycles.
On the way you can see the Pauline Church on the Rock, the Bernatek footbridge, which has become a favorite place for couples in love, as well as the famous Pont des Arts Bridge in Paris, the Norbertine Monastery in Salwator, and use the bar moored by the river, where you can drink beer, eat a good meal and even dance. After crossing the boulevards we can then go on a journey to Krakow's Błonia, which is a city park in the form of a vast meadow with a total area of 48 hectares which makes them one of the largest meadows in Europe in the city center.
